#109 Filippo Magnini

Filippo Magnini is a two-time World Champion in the 100 Free (2005 and 2007) and Olympic Bronze medalist as part of Italy's 4x200 Free Relay in 2004. After an illustrious career, the 17x European Champion retired in 2016.    After retiring, he received a four-year ban for doping -- yet he never tested positive -- he was said to have conspired about possibly doping. After a long fought battle, Filippo was absolved of any wrong doing.    Now, at age 38, he is back training with his eye on making the 2021 Italian Olympic Team.
