Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on December 17, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Kyle Salyards! May your day be filled with laughter, cake, and fewer laps than that unforgettable 200-meter breaststroke at the Sydney Olympics. We still marvel at how you made swimming look so effortless—though most of us struggle just to float!

Your Olympic journey inspired countless swimmers to chase their dreams (and perhaps avoid chlorine-scented hair). Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy and success as your incredible moments in the pool. Keep making waves, Kyle—just maybe not too big; we don't want anyone spilling their birthday drinks! Cheers to another lap around the sun!
