Career


She broke both the short course 50-metre and 100-metre butterfly world records in 2008, in 25.32 and 55.89, respectively. The 100-metre record lasted for less than a month, as teammate Libby Trickett lowered it on 26 April 2008. The 50-metre record was broken by Therese Alshammar during the Stockholm stop of the 2008 FINA World Cup Series, but Marieke Guehrer returned it to Australian hands just days later. Galvez broke the 100m butterfly short course world record again at the 2009 FINA World Cup Series in Stockholm with a 55.46. That is 0.22 seconds faster than the previous mark of 55.68 set by Australian teammate, Jessicah Schipper on 12 August 2009.
