Razan Taha (Arabic: رزان طه; born December 29, 1991 in Amman) is a Jordanian swimmer, who specialized in sprint freestyle events.[1] At age sixteen, Taha became one of the youngest swimmers to mark their debut for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where she competed in the women's 50 m freestyle. She finished fourth in the fifth heat by one hundredth of a second (0.01) behind Nicaragua's Dalia Tórrez Zamora, with a time of 27.82 seconds. Taha, however, failed to advance into the semi-finals, as she placed fifty-sixth out of ninety-two swimmers in the overall rankings.[2]
