Ledecky leaves Paris pool in style with gold in 800m free

Katie Ledecky capped her Paris experience with gold in the women’s 800m freestyle, defending the title she first won at London 2012 at age 15 and subsequently claimed at Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020.

Australia’s Ariarne Titmus pushed Ledecky every stride of the way, finishing with silver. American Paige Madden earned bronze.

Ledecky is the seventh Olympian and fifth American to win an individual gold in the same event four times.

 

It’s the 27-year-old’s fourth medal at Paris 2024 and 14th overall Olympic medal, extending her record for the most won by an American woman.
