Katie Ledecky (27, USA) has become the female swimmer with the most medals in Olympic swimming history.
Ledecky was the third in the US team in the women’s 4x100m relay final held at the La Defense Aquatics Center in Paris, France on the 2nd, and helped the team win a silver medal. The US recorded a time of 7:40.86, placing second behind Australia (7:38.08), which set an Olympic record. Ledecky, who is competing in her fourth Olympics, has won her 13th medal, surpassing Jenny Thompson (51), Dara Torres (57), Natalie Coughlin (42, all USA), and Emma McKeon (30, Australia) who have won 12 medals, becoming the female swimmer with the most medals in Olympic swimming history.
Ledecky has won 8 gold medals, 4 silver medals, and 1 bronze medal in the Olympics. Starting with the gold medal in the 800m freestyle at the 2012 London Games, he became a quadruple champion by winning the 200m, 400m, 800m freestyle, and 800m relay at the 2016 Rio Games. At the 2021 Tokyo Games, he won gold medals in the 800m and 1500m freestyle.
Ledecky, who won a bronze medal in the 400m freestyle on the 28th of last month, won a gold medal in the 1500m freestyle on the 1st with an Olympic record of 15 minutes 30.02 seconds, and also won three medals in Paris. Ledecky, who will be hunting for a medal again in the 800m freestyle on the 4th, where he holds the world record (8 minutes 4.79 seconds), said, “I am honored to be listed with the swimmers I respect,” and “I will continue to compete in Los Angeles in four years.”
Among swimmers, male or female, “swimming emperor” Michael Phelps (39, USA) has the most Olympic medals with 28. Phelps has won 23 gold medals, three silver medals, and two bronze medals in five Olympics. This is the most medals won in both the summer and winter Olympics. 카지노사이트
