At the 2023 Flemish Open Swimming Championships, conducted in long course metres and held in February in Antwerp, Belgium, Vanotterdijk set six new Belgian records in individual events over a period of two days.[49] On 10 February, she set a 54.72 in the preliminaries of the 100 metre freestyle and a 54.51 in the final of the 100 metre freestyle.[49][50] On 11 February, she set a 1:00.08 in the preliminaries of the 100 metre backstroke, a 25.29 in the preliminaries of the 50 metre freestyle, a 59.62 in the final of the 100 metre backstroke (becoming the first Belgian woman faster than 1:00:00 in the event), and a 25.17 in the final of the 50 metre freestyle.[49] On 12 February, she brought her total number of Belgian records in individual events for the competition to nine, setting new national marks of 28.06 seconds in the preliminaries of the 50 metre backstroke, 57.82 seconds in the preliminaries of the 100 metre butterfly, and 27.97 seconds in the final of the 50 metre backstroke.[51][52] The following month, she became age-eligible to compete at the 2023 World Junior Swimming Championships and through the end of the 2023 year for world junior records when World Aquatics raised its age cut-off to 18 years of age for female swimmers from its previous cut-off of 17 years of age.[53]

2023 Belgian Championships[edit]

For the 2023 Belgian Open Championships in April, Vanotterdijk entered to compete in seven individual events.[54] Day one, she achieved a personal best time in the 200 metre freestyle with a 1:59.31 in the preliminaries.[55] In the evening, she won the silver medal with a 1:59.62.[56] The following day, she achieved a personal best time of 2:14.24 in the preliminaries of the 200 metre individual medley.[57] For the evening session, she won the national title each in the 50 metre freestyle (25.31 seconds) and the 100 metre backstroke (59.87 seconds).[58][59] The third and final day, she won three more national titles, first in the 100 metre freestyle (54.56 seconds), second approximately 35 minutes later in the 50 metre backstroke (28.16 seconds), and third approximately 7 minutes after that in the 50 metre butterfly (26.60 seconds).[60]
