Errata
The surname is properly spelled "Mac Neil" with a space after the "Mac". The confusion is created due to the way her name is listed in her Canadian passport, which is spelled incorrectly. National Olympic Committees must register athletes using their passport name with the respective Organizing Committee. The rationale is that the pre-valid card is often used as an entry visa for certain host nations. So both names need to match. Therefore her Olympic results for Tokyo 2020 have no space. However, the Canadian Olympic Committee & Swimming Canada’s public websites as well as Ms Mac Neil’s social media accounts all use the space.
