Dara Torres

Dara Torres is an accomplished Olympian, and she has more medals than anyone else. She has twelve medals to her name, four of which are gold. There’s certainly no question that the former competitive swimmer was one of the most successful Olympians in history, but unfortunately, her Olympic career was cut off by injuries. Torres had to undergo multiple surgeries for her knees, eventually prompting her to stop her successful run in competitive swimming.

Since then, Torres has moved on from competitive swimming and is now chasing different pursuits like pursuing a career in modeling. In addition to modeling, she also utilized her bachelor’s degree in telecommunications as she’s now also a television correspondent. She’s still incredibly passionate about swimming as she often swims as a celebrity swimmer for a charity called Swim Across America.
