(Anne Montminy)
- Thirty National Titles (26 Senior and 4 Junior)
In 2008 at the Beijing Olympics, Emilie Heymans was able to capture the silver medal on 10 m, her very first individual Olympic medal. The 27-year old Saint-Lambert native also became just the fifth athlete in Canadian history to win three medals at three different Olympic Games. In 2004 Emilie paired with Blythe Hartley to win bronze on 10 m synchro, and in 2000 she and Anne Montminy brought home silver from Sydney in the same event.
After returning home from these recent Games, this Point-Claire diver decided to change her focus and switch to 3 m springboard with London 2012 as the ultimate goal in mind. At her first competition in her “new” event, Emilie Heymans won the silver medal at the Canada Cup.
Émilie has previously competed internationally on 3 m and won the silver medal at the 2002 Commonwealth Games, 2003 Pan Am Games, and 2003 FINA Super Grand Final. She has also won five national titles.
Émilie Heymans has been extremely successful on 10 m and 10 m synchro with her partner Marie Eve Marleau, as is evident by her Olympic medals, national senior records, and Group A (16 to 18 years old) national record in these events.
As is the case with many divers, the 2003 World Champion on 10 m started her career as a competitive gymnast. At 11 years of age, she started diving and immediately fell in love with the sport. Within her first week, the head coach of her club noticed her potential and took her under his wing.
Emilie Heymans will be representing Canada again this summer at the 2009 FINA World Aquatic Championships in Rome, Italy
