One day after earning the Silver in Women’s 4x100 Free Relay, Dana Vollmeradds to her 2016 Rio haul with a Bronze from the 100 Fly. Vollmer swam a time of 56.63s. She was trying to become the first person to repeat as Gold medalist in the 100 Fly.
The 2012 London Gold medalist faced a very tough challenge from Sweden’s Sarah Sjostrom. Vollmer won London when she set a new Olympic and World Record. Since then, Sjostrom has broken Vollmer’s world record. In the semifinal on Saturday night, Vollmer’s Olympic fell to Sjostrom as well.
