Nadiya Beshevli (Ukrainian: Надія Бешевлі; born 8 February 1982) is a Ukrainian former swimmer, who specialized in freestyle and backstroke events.[1] She represented Ukraine, as an 18-year-old, at the 2000 Summer Olympics, and held numerous Ukrainian titles and meet records in the freestyle relays and backstroke double (both 100 and 200 m).[2]
Beshevli competed in five swimming events, including all relays, at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. She achieved FINA B-standards of 1:04.47 (100 m backstroke) and 2:17.48 (200 m backstroke) from the Multinations Swim Meet in Prague, Czech Republic.[3][4] On the second day of the Games, Beshevli placed twenty-seventh in the 100 m backstroke. Swimming in heat three, she faded down the stretch on the final lap to share a fourth seed with Belgium's Sofie Wolfs in 1:04.66.[5][6] Four days later, in the 200 m backstroke, Beshevli posted a sterling time of 2:15.86 to an unexpected triumph from heat two, but missed the semifinals by more than three-fourths of a second (0.75).[7][8] A member of the Ukrainian squad, Beshevli also placed thirteenth in the 4×100 m freestyle relay (3:49.11), and sixteenth in the 4×100 m medley relay (4:15.64).[9][10][11] In the 4×200 m freestyle relay, Beshevli and her teammates Olena Lapunova, Albina Bordunova, and Zhanna Lozumyrska were disqualified from heat one in the prelims for an early launch on the lead-off leg.[12]
