The United States' first gold medal of the 2024 Paris Olympics went to the 4x100-meter men's freestyle relay team in a thrilling race.
When Caeleb Dressel, the anchor leg of the four-man team, touched the wall, the United States posted a final time of 3:09.28, beating out their Australian rivals by more than a full second.
Australia earned silver with a time of 3:10.05, while Italy edged out China for bronze at 3:10.70.
This is a developing story. More to come.
