Kenza Bennaceur (Arabic: كنزة بن ناصر; born January 14, 1976) is an Algerian former swimmer, who specialized in butterfly and in individual medley events. She won two bronze medals in the 200 m butterfly (2:33.54) and 400 m individual medley (5:29.60) at the 1999 All-Africa Games in Johannesburg, South Africa.[1]
Bennaceur competed only in the women's 100 m butterfly at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. She achieved a FINA B-cut of 1:07.00 from the All-Africa Games.[2] Swimming in heat two, Bennaceur decided to scratch out from the race, and then withdrew from the Games for personal and health reasons on the first day of prelims.[3][4]
