Age: 19
Main Event: 200m Individual Medley
Club: Templeogue Swimming Club
From Templeogue in Dublin, Walsh had a bit of a nervous wait after winning the 200m Individual Medley at the Swim Ireland last chance meet in June, breaking the Irish record twice, and 0.44 of a second under the Olympic qualifying time for the event. Though not initially deemed eligible for Tokyo, Swim Ireland revised their policy to allow her in. Irish senior record holder in the 200m Individual Medley and 100m Butterfly, Walsh first showed her promise in 2015, winning silver at the European Youth Olympic Games in the 100m Butterfly. She is coached by Brian Sweeney.
