Sameera Al-Bitar

Sameera Al Bitar, sometimes listed as "Samira" or "Al-Bitar", (born February 21, 1990, in Jordan),[1] is a 2-time Olympic swimmer from Bahrain.

[3] Bitar completed the 50m race with a personal best of 31.00 seconds, enough to win her heat but not enough to advance to the next round.

[4][5] She again represented Bahrain at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing[6][7] and won her heat in the 50m freestyle.

Her time of 30.32 was well ahead of second-place finisher in her heat, Benin's Gloria Koussihouede (at 37.09), but nonetheless insufficient to advance to the next round.

[8] She recently graduated from The George Washington University School of Business, where she majored in Finance and Sports Management.
