Kate Marie Ziegler (born June 27, 1988) is an American competition swimmer who specializes in freestyle and long-distance events. Ziegler has won a total of fifteen medals in major international competition, including eight golds, five silvers, and two bronze spanning the World Aquatics and the Pan Pacific Championships. She was a member of the 2012 United States Olympic Team, and competed in the 800-meter freestyle event at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Early years

{{unreferencedsect|date=August 2016}}

Ziegler was born in Fairfax, Virginia in 1988, the daughter of Don and Cathy Ziegler. She was a part of a local swim team, FISH, where she was coached under Ray Benecki. She attended Bishop Denis J. O'Connell High School in Arlington County, Virginia, a Washington, D.C. suburb. At Bishop O'Connell, she excelled throughout her four years, earning Washington Post All-Met honors four straight years, including being Swimmer of the Year on more than one occasion. As a freshman, she finished third in the 200-yard freestyle (1:51.59) and won the 500-yard freestyle (4:47.78) at the 2003 Metros Swimming and Diving Championships, breaking the then-15-year-old record in the 500 held by Pam Minthorn. She also anchored O'Connell's 200-yard freestyle (24.51 split) and 400-yard freestyle (53.65 split) to seventh and sixth-place finishes, respectively. The following year, as a sophomore, she won both the 200-yard freestyle (1:46.15) and the 500-yard freestyle (4:41.91) in record time, and anchored the winning 200-yard freestyle (24.14 split) and third place 400-yard freestyle (51.63 split) relays. Her times continued to drop rapidly, and as a junior she again won both the 200-yard freestyle (1:45.43) and 500-yard freestyle (4:37.67) in record time, the latter being an independent national high school record. As a senior, she continued to excel, tying the national high school record in the 200-yard freestyle (1:45.49) and breaking Janet Evans' American record in the 500-yard freestyle (4:35.35).

Ziegler initially attended George Mason University, and later transferred to Chapman University in 2011.

International career

2004-05

At the 2004 Short Course Worlds, she finished second to Japan's Sachiko Yamada in the 800-meter freestyle with a time of 8:20.55. Her 400-meter split would have placed fourth in the event at the meet.[1]

In February 2005, at the FINA World Cup stop in New York, Ziegler won the 800-meter freestyle in 8:16.32, breaking Cynthia Woodhead's 25-year-old American record, which at the time was the oldest American record on the books.

In 2005, Ziegler won the 800-meter freestyle (8:25.31) and 1,500-meter freestyle (16:00.41) at the World Championships in Montreal. The latter time made her the third-fastest woman (and second American) in the history of the event, following only world-record holder Janet Evans's 15:52.10 and German Hannah Stockbauer's 16:00.18. She qualified for Worlds after winning the 800-meter freestyle at World Trials in Indianapolis with a time of 8:34.83. She failed to qualify in the 400-meter freestyle, finishing third in a time of 4:12.09.

2006-08

At the 2006 Pan Pacific Swimming Championships, she swam the 1,500-meter freestyle in 15:55.01 making her the second fastest swimmer of all time in that event and only the second person to break the sixteen-minute mark. The third person was Hayley Peirsol who finished the event just two seconds later.

In 2007, at an in-season meet, Ziegler broke Janet Evan's long standing world record in the 1500-meter freestyle with 15:42.54. It stood for six years, until Katie Ledecky broke the record in 2013.

At the 2007 World Championships, she won the 800-meter freestyle[2] and 1,500-meter freestyle,[3] to defend the titles she had won in 2005.[4]

In 2008, Ziegler qualified for the Olympic Games by placing second to Katie Hoff in both the 400-meter (4:03.92) and 800-meter (8:25.38) freestyle events. At the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, however, Ziegler failed to qualify for the finals in either event. Notably, her best time in the 800-meter would have netted her a silver medal.

2012 Summer Olympics

{{see also|Swimming at the 2012 Summer Olympics}}

At the 2012 United States Olympic Trials in Omaha, Nebraska, the U.S. qualifying event for the Olympics, Ziegler made the U.S. Olympic team for the second time by placing second in the 800-meter freestyle with a time of 8:21.87, behind first-place finisher Katie Ledecky.[5] She also competed in the 400-meter freestyle and finished seventh in the final (4:09.17).[6]

At the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, Ziegler, swimming in the fastest qualifying heat of 800-meter freestyle, posted a time of 8:37.38 behind Rebecca Adlington of Great Britain and Lauren Boyle of New Zealand. Only the top eight swimmers of all five qualifying heats advanced to the 800-meter finals (with 8:27.15 as the slowest times of those eight), and Ziegler did not advance.

2015

In May, Ziegler returned to competition after a two-year break.[7]
