Lilly King won a huge gold for the USA last night. Kentucky swimmer goes for gold today.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen of the Big Blue Nation, and welcome to the Tuesday Quickies.
Today’s lead story is about an Indiana University swimmer, Lilly King, who won the gold medal yesterday in the Rio Olympics, and after doing so called out her Russian competitor, silver medalist Yulia Efimova, who had failed two doping tests in recent history and served a 16-month suspension.
Also notable was the failure of King to congratulate Efimova, whom she basically ignored before and after the event.
