Brooke Marie Bennett (born May 6, 1980 in Tampa, Florida) is an American swimmer with multiple Olympic gold medals.
Bennett's first gold medal came in the 800 meter freestyle race at the 1996 Summer Olympics. This accomplishment, coming days after her grandfather died, was overshadowed by the fact that this was the last race in the career of swimming legend Janet Evans.
At the 2000 Summer Olympics, she would win two more gold medals in the 400 meter and 800 meter freestyle races, with the latter coming in Olympic-record time.
