Phelps earned his 22nd career gold medal on Day 6 of the 2016 Rio Olympic Games in dominant fashion. He won the men’s 200-meter individual medley by a 1.96 second margin over Japan’s Kosuke Hagino, who finished in second place with a silver medal.
The gold medal marked Phelps' fourth consecutive Olympic Games that he has won the 200-meter individual medley, dating back to his second Olympics in Athens, Greece 12 years ago.
