Career[edit]

2020–2021[edit]

In June 2020, at the senior Swedish National Championships, conducted in a virtual format, Nystrand won gold medals and nationals titles in the 200-metre breaststroke, 200-metre individual medley, and 400-metre individual medley, as well as a silver medal in the 200-metre backstroke.[4] The following year, in April at the Swedish Swim Open, she qualified for her first senior LEN European Aquatics Championships at 15 years of age, achieving a qualifying time of 2:15.46 in the 200-metre individual medley for both the senior and junior European Championships of the year.[5] Her time of 2:15.46 was 1.08 seconds faster than the Olympic selection time in the event for the 2020 Summer Olympics (2:16.54) and was achieved before the end of the qualifying period, which closed on 27 June.[6]

At the 2020 European Aquatics Championships, held in May at Danube Arena in Budapest, Hungary, Nystrand placed 26th in the 200-metre individual medley with a time of 2:16.34, which was again faster than the 2020 Summer Olympics selection time and was attained in the qualifying period.[6][7] In her other event, the 200-metre backstroke, she placed 28th, finishing in a time of 2:17.50.[8] While her 200-metre individual medley times from April (2:15.46) and May (2:16.34) were both faster than the Olympic selection time of 2:16.54 and were both attained before 27 June, the International Olympic Committee invited no female Swedish swimmers to compete in the event for Team Sweden at the 2020 Olympic Games.[6][9] Two months later, in July at the 2021 European Junior Swimming Championships held in Rome, Italy, she placed sixth in the final of the 200-metre individual medley with a 2:15.08, eighth in the final of the 400-metre individual medley with a 4:50.04, tenth in the semifinals of the 200-metre breaststroke with a personal best time of 2:31.65, fourteenth in the 4×100-metre medley relay, swimming the backstroke leg of the relay, 34th in the 100-metre backstroke with a 1:05.70, and did not start the 200-metre backstroke.[10]

For the 2021 European Short Course Swimming Championships, contested at the Palace of Water Sports in Kazan, Russia in November, Nystrand achieved a fourteenth-place finish in the semifinals of the 200-metre backstroke with a personal best time of 2:09.85, after a personal best time of 2:10.78 in the preliminary heats, and a seventeenth-place finish in the 200-metre individual medley with a personal best time of 2:13.16.[2][11][12] She also placed sixteenth in the 400-metre individual medley with a personal best time of 4:41.12.[12]
