Hewitt has been incredibly consistent ever since she placed eighth at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, with numerous podium and top-10 finishes at World Championship Series and World Cup races. Going into the Grand Final in Budapest last year, Hewitt was in contention for the overall world title, but a terrible swim put her out of the running. She was third overall in World Championship Series rankings in 2009 and could pull off a podium in London.
