Swimming competition (4)

I think it could be either:

gala

meet

'swimming competition' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for meet that I've seen before include "Bump into" , "Fitting to come together" , "Touch; suitable (arch.)" , "Right and fitting" , "acceptable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The New York Times, the USA Today, the Wall Street Journal, the BuzzFeed, the Universal, The Washington Post and The Mirror.
