Speedo has officially named Olympic gold medalist and Chinese national swim team star Wang Shun as its newest brand ambassador. As one of the most recognized names in Chinese swimming, Wang has built a remarkable career—winning three golds at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta, breaking the Asian record at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, and taking home six gold medals in five days at the 2023 Asian Games in Hangzhou. His name has become a symbol of speed and excellence in the water.
“The China Swimming Team is home to some of the most exciting stars in swimming, including Speedo-sponsored athlete Wang Shun, who carved his name into history at Tokyo 2020. We’re thrilled to extend our partnership with the China Swimming Association and support the team as they look to write more golden chapters in Paris and LA,” said Simon Rowe, Speedo’s VP of Global Sports Marketing.
Speedo’s latest campaign, Roaming Through the Moment, encourages people to occasionally step away from the pressure of the clock and simply enjoy the feeling of being in the water. In four short films, Wang shows a more relaxed side of himself, away from competition, while modeling several Speedo collections. The campaign brings to life the brand’s laid-back, feel-good spirit: just swim and enjoy.
Wang’s relentless pursuit of speed and his search for balance outside the pool perfectly reflect Speedo’s values. The brand plans to continue working closely with him as he sets his sights on more breakthrough performances on the global stage.
