Angela Dawn Chuck (born 14 February 1981) is a Jamaican former swimmer, who specialized in sprint freestyle events.[1] She won a total of two medals, gold in the 200 m freestyle (2:07.81), and bronze in the 100 m freestyle (58.91), at the 2002 Central American and Caribbean Games in San Salvador, El Salvador.[2] Chuck is a two-time Olympian (2000 and 2004) and a psychology graduate of Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.[3]

Chuck made her first Jamaican team at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, where she competed in the women's 50 m freestyle. Swimming in heat four, she picked up a second spot and forty-ninth overall by 0.60 of a second behind leader Yekaterina Tochenaya of Kazakhstan in 27.48.[4]

At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Chuck qualified for the 100 m freestyle, by posting a FINA B-standard entry time of 57.59 from the Caribbean Championships in Kingston.[5][6] She challenged seven other swimmers on the third heat, including Olympic veterans Dominique Diezi of Switzerland and Lara Heinz of Luxembourg. She edged out Iceland's Ragnheiður Ragnarsdóttir to take a seventh spot by 0.14 of a second, outside her entry time of 58.33. Chuck failed to advance into the semifinals, as she placed thirty-ninth overall in the preliminaries.[7][8]

Shortly after her second Olympics, Chuck retired from swimming to work as an assistant coach for the Blue Devils at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina.[3]
