This swim also makes Guiliano the fastest performer in the world this season.
The previous Pro Series record, previously held by longtime Team USA sprint free ace Nathan Adrian of 48.00, falls after nearly a decade and makes Guiliano the first ever sub-48 time in Pro Swim Series history.
Giuliano was hardly contested in prelims here, getting out to a more than half-second lead over the next fastest finisher, Matt King, at the first turn in 22.42, before extending that lead and putting the event field well behind him with his 24.96 2nd 50.
This swim sets him up to defend his first Pro Series win of the year from Austin, where he won the 100 free in 48.14 in January. This is a promising start ot he calendar year for Guiliano, as he had his share of ups and downs in 2025. Notably finishing 3rd in the 100 free at the US National championships in June, swimming 47.49, not qualifying to swim individually, but still earning a spot on the US World Championship team as a relay swimmer.
At those World Championships, Guiliano led of the prelims 400 free relay in 47.66, and would later split 47.43 in a bronze medal effort as the 3rd leg of that relay.
He bounced back at the US Open in December, taking 2nd in the 100 free in 47.63, a time that betters any of his individual swims from the Olympic Games a year and a half earlier.
Guiliano quickly rose to one of the top sprinters in the world at the US Olympic Trials, winning the 100 free (47.38) and qualifying for his first Olympic Games in both the 50 free and 200 free by finishing 2nd in each. He would finish 8th in the 100 free in Paris that summer in 47.98.
Guiliano, who is training at Texas, after making the move to Austin following the suspension of the Notre Dame Men’s team in 2024, surpasses Youngbeom Kim‘s 47.39 from October’s Korean Sports Festival as the fastest performer in the world this season.
