Swimming is the most popular sport in Australia. In the 2004 Olympics, Australia's medal tally in swim events was 15. Jodie Henry (swimming) 3 gold - Athens 2004, Petria Thomas (swimming) 3 gold - Athens 2004, Ian Thorpe (swimming) 3 gold - Sydney 2000, Shane Gould (swimming) 3 gold - Munich 1972, Murray Rose (swimming) 3 gold - Melbourne 1956
The first Australian to win an Olympic medal in swimming was Fred Lane for 1900 Paris Olympics. He won the 200 m freestyle and the 200m hurdle. Australia appears to be a sports lover's paradise. Tennis, rugby, soccer, cricket etc., all seems to be popular in Australia but swimming still remains the most popular.

It depends on who you ask. Most would say AFL- Aussie Rules Football which is immensely popular in the state of Victoria. Rugby is also a popular sport in the states of Queensland and New South Wales. Australians love all sports so it depends on who you ask as Australians are involved in a number of sports such as Cricket which they do very well in, Swimming, Tennis, Netball, Basketball and now Soccer.
