Olympic Medalist Michael Jamieson Joins Speedo as Ambassador

Speedo has announced today that Olympian and current star of British swimming Michael Jamieson will become their latest Speedo Ambassador. 

Michael, who won silver in the 200m breaststroke at London 2012 and more recently won silver in the same event at World Short Course Championships in Istanbul, will work with Speedo to promote swimming across the country.

Jamieson said: “I have been swimming since I was four years old and have always worn Speedo. I am really looking forward to a great partnership with them over the next two years, in the run up to a home Commonwealth Games.” 

Speedo UK Marketing Manager Sally Polak said: “It’s great that we have Michael on board – he is a fantastic ambassador for swimming; a great fit for the brand, and has a bright swimming career ahead.” 

The new deal will see the partnership between Speedo and Michael go through to the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Jamieson’s native Glasgow where he will compete in the same pool he trained in for many years.
