Katie Ledecky added to her Summer Olympics legacy with her second gold medal in the women's 1,500-meter freestyle on Wednesday.
The victory came in typically dominant fashion as she set an Olympic record (15:30.02). France's Anastasiia Kirpichnikova was more than 10 seconds behind in second place.
This is the fourth straight Summer Games in which Ledecky earned a first-place finish. She previously won one gold in London, four golds in Rio de Janeiro and two in Tokyo.
Her win on Wednesday gave her back-to-back gold medals in a single event.
