Distance star Katie Ledecky will get the chance to defend her title in the women’s 800 free next month in Rio. She won tonight’s final in 8:10.32, nearly ten seconds ahead of the rest of the field.
Although the 2012 gold medalist fell off world record pace, her final time sits as the third fastest of all-time. She’ll aim to break her own world record of 8:06.68 she set earlier this year.
Ledecky has gone 15-for-15 in major international competition wins since her gold medal performance in London. She also holds the world records in the 400 free and 1500.
The two-time Olympian, who is currently the youngest on the roster, will also swim the 200 and 400 freestyles in Rio after winning both events this week in Omaha.
