In the November issue of Swimming World Magazine, open water swimming correspondent Steven Munatones wrote about this year’s RCP Tiburon Mile and penned a feature on the Open Water Swimmers of the Year.

While Kane Radford and Melissa Gorman came from Down Under to take the US$10,000 crowns at the RCP Tiburon Mile on a beautiful San Francisco day in September, three swimmers were named as Swimming World Magazine’s Open Water Swimmers of the Year.

The trio are very well deserving of the honor due to their outstanding performances at the 2011 World Swimming Championships in Shanghai, China. Click here soon to learn who the open water swimmers of the year are.
