What Are The Odds to Win - Swimming: Women’s 100m Freestyle Tokyo Olympics

Emma McKeon is a modest -115 favorite to win the Women’s 100m Freestyle at this year's Summer Olympics for Swimming.

An Australian competitive swimmer, McKeon has racked up 27 medals in various competitions throughout her career, including four at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, one of those being gold.

“I grew up around the water, at the beach, the backyard pool, etc. so my love of swimming started at a very young age,” explained the freestyle and butterfly specialist. “My brother and sister and I were always active doing some form of sport around the water - swimming, surfing, waterskiing - and my parents also run a swim school, so I learned early.”

Cate Campbell pays $300 should she win the gold.

Also representing Australia, Campbell has won two bronze medals at the 2008 Summer Olympics, a gold medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics and a gold and a silver medal at the 2016 Summer Olympics.
