Alisa Yuzy Khaleyeva (Azerbaijani: Alisa Yuzy Xalıyeva; born September 26, 1978) is an Azerbaijani former swimmer, who specialized in sprint freestyle events.[1] Khaleyeva competed for Azerbaijan in the women's 50 m freestyle at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. She received a ticket from FINA, under a Universality program, in an entry time of 28.00.[2] She challenged seven other swimmers in heat three, including Nigeria's top favorite Ngozi Monu and Aruba's 15-year-old teen Roshendra Vrolijk. Entering the race with a fastest-seeded time, Khaleyeva scorched the field effortlessly with a powerful pace, but fell short to third seed in 28.79, almost six-tenths of a second (0.60) behind the leader Monu. Khaleyeva failed to advance into the semifinals, as she placed fifty-ninth overall out of 74 swimmers in the prelims.[3] [4] [5]
