Annika Liebs (6 September 1979), previously Annika Lurz,[2] is an Olympic and former World Record-holding swimmer from Germany. She swam for her homeland at the 2008 Olympics.

In 2005, she was a member of the German team that won the silver medal in the 4×100 m freestyle relay at the World Championships in Montreal;[3] and captured three medals (2 silver, 1 bronze) at the Summer Universiade in İzmir, Turkey.

At the 2006 European Championships in Budapest, she clocked the then fastest-ever split in the 4×200 m freestyle relay (1.55.64), helping the Germany team to break the world record in the event with their 7.50.82. Other members of the relay were: Petra Dallmann, Daniela Samulski, and Britta Steffen. Also in the pool during the 4×200 m freestyle relay was France's Laure Manaudou, who swam the then-second fastest split ever (1.56.23). Also at the 2006 European Championships, Annika also swam on Germany's 4×100 m freestyle relay that also set a new world record (3:35.22).

At the 2007 World Championships, she swam the then second-faster-ever time in the women's 200 m freestyle (1:55.68),[4] in finishing second behind Laure Manaudou's world record winning performance; setting the German record in the process. Also at the 2007 Worlds, she was part of Germany's silver medalist 4×200 m freestyle relay.[4]

One month after the 2006 European Championships finished, Annika married her coach Stefan Lurz. The couple divorced in 2013.
