The 2025 World Aquatics Championships will wrap up on Sunday in Singapore. The event has already seen multiple historic moments, including a new record set in the men’s 200-meter individual medley, and a 12-year-old becoming the youngest swimmer to win a medal at the World Championships. Summer McIntosh is currently on track to win five gold medals for individual events. If she achieves that goal, she’ll be the first swimmer since Michael Phelps to do so. Hosts Marco Werman and Carolyn Beeler have the details.
