Myriam Glez

Myriam Glez (born May 20, 1980) in France) is a synchronised swimmer who represented France at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and Australia at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.

Glez won ten synchronised swimming titles in France before moving to Australia in 2005 to take up a marketing position. Although the move wasn't meant to be permanent, she took Australian citizenship in 2007[1] and became eligible for selection on the Australian team in Beijing.

She competed in the duet with Erika Leal-Ramirez, who had also represented another country in synchronised swimming, Mexico. The pair finished 21st from a field of 24.[2] Glez was also a member of the Australian team which finished seventh, its best Olympic performance.[3]
