PARIS — In a head-to-head battle for swimming supremacy at the 2024 Olympics, the U.S. topped Australia in the women’s 4x100-meter medley relay, and climbed to the top of the meet’s medal table with gold in its very last race.

After Bobby Finke’s gold in the men’s 1,500-meter freestyle earlier Sunday, the Americans and Aussies entered the 35th of 35 finals with seven gold medals apiece.
