Olympics swimming results: Katie Ledecky wins 1500 gold, Penny Oleksiak makes Canadian history - Sporting News

sisilihya.blogspot.com

The Ariarne Titmus show continued Tuesday. 

The Australian star, fresh off a thrilling win against Katie Ledecky in the 400-meter freestyle, proved her freestyle prowess again in the 200, making a late run to take the gold medal in the event as Ledecky faded to fifth. Titmus set an Olympic record with her time of 1:53.50.

Penny Oleksiak earned the bronze medal to make her the most decorated Canadian athlete in the Summer Olympics with sixth career Olympic medals. 

Ledecky had her moment later in the program. She made history by becoming the first gold medalist in the women's 1,500 freestyle, winning by more than four seconds over American teammate Erica Sullivan. The all-time great now has six Olympic gold medals. 

Two more Americans put themselves on the podium Tuesday. Alex Walsh and Kate Douglass finished second and third, respectively in the women's 200 individual medley behind Japan's Yui Ohashi. 

The United States came up short in the men's 4x200 freestyle relay and missed the podium, the first time an American relay team — men's or women's — has ever failed to claim a medal. The American men were in the hunt for gold with Great Britain for the first half of the relay but faltered and finished fourth. Great Britain, the Russian Olympic Committee and Australia finished 1-2-3. 

Sporting News provided live updates and highlights from each event during the fourth day of Olympic swimming finals.
