Competing on night 1 of the 2019 Edinburgh International Swim Meet, Guy fired off a solid in-season time of 1:47.66 to beat out both Commonwealth Games multi-medalist Duncan Scott and rising Brit Tom Dean.
Splitting 52.18/55.48, Guy notched the only time under the 1:48 mark, with Scott right behind in 1:48.13. Scott earned bronze in this event on the Gold Coast in a time of 1:46.30. For Dean, the 18-year-old’s personal best rests at the 1:47.38 notched at this year’s British Universities & Colleges (BUCS) Championships.
