Olivier's father and brother were both swimmers, which inspired him to take up the sport as well. He began swimming when he was seven in Denain, France, and he began open-water swimming at the age of fifteen.[3] At the 2015 World Aquatics Championships he finished 6th in the 10 km open water, which qualified him for the Olympic marathon.
He won the bronze medal in the 10 km open water marathon at the 2016 Summer Olympics, outtouching Zu Lijun of China who was recorded in the same time.[4]
He was qualified to represent France at the 2020 Summer Olympics where he finished 6th.[5]
