Brooke Forde (born March 4, 1999) is an American swimmer. The daughter of sportswriter Pat Forde and his wife Tricia, the latter a former swimmer at Northwestern University, she grew up around the sport, with both of her older brothers going on to swim in NCAA Division I. She swam for Lakeside Swim Club in Louisville, Kentucky. According to a 2021 story by local Louisville journalist Rick Bozich, "As her parents remember it, Brooke had one swimming lesson. She learned by sitting with her mom at practice and then mimicking her brothers." She set her first Kentucky state record as an 8-year-old, and a year later recorded that year's best age-group time in the U.S. in the girls' 50m butterfly. Read more on Wikipedia
