Faisal Al-Mahmeed (born November 3, 1983) is a Kuwaiti former swimmer, who specialized in backstroke events.[1] Al-Mahmeed competed only in the men's 100 m backstroke at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. He achieved a FINA B-cut of 58.65 from the Asian Championships in Busan, South Korea.[2] Swimming in heat one, he pulled away from Micronesia's Welbert Samuel to pick up a sixth seed in a time of 1:05.17, a 6.5-second deficit outside his entry standard. Al-Mahmeed failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed fiftieth overall in the prelims.[3][4]
