What comes next?
McKeown will chase more medals on Wednesday night as part of Australia's mixed 4x100m medley relay team.
She has been working hard to overcome her post-Olympic blues and prove to herself that she is a good athlete and swimmer.
McKeown's coach, Michael Bohl, had moved to China, and she had to adjust to a new training camp on the Gold Coast, then back home to the Sunshine Coast.
After Australia's selection trials, she dislocated her shoulder, which has been causing her irritation.
But McKeown has a good medical team and physiotherapists to help her get through the injury.
She is really proud of her achievement and feels emotional about it.
McKeown's time of 57.16 seconds is a personal best, and she was not expecting to achieve it.
