Graham White

Graham White

Graham White (born 14 February 1951) was an Australian middle-long distance freestyle swimmer of the 1960s and 1970s, who won a silver medal in the 4x200 m freestyle relay at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics.

White combined with Michael Wenden, Bob Windle and Greg Rogers to win silver in the 4x200 m freestyle relay, half a bodylength behind the Americans. He also competed in the 400 m and 1500 m freestyle, finishing fifth and fourth respectively.

At the 1970 Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh, White was part of the team that claimed gold in both the 4x100 m and 4x200 m freestyle relays. Individually he claimed gold in the 400 m event. Continuing to the 1972 Munich Olympics, White had a poor end to his career, placing fifth in the 1500 m freestyle and being eliminated in the heats of the 200 m and 400 m freestyle events.
