Katie Ledecky and Team USA will be looking for redemption at the 2024 Paris Olympics in the women's 4x200 freestyle relay.
The Americans narrowly missed out on the gold three years ago in Tokyo, finishing a mere 0.4 seconds behind China.
This time, Ledecky and Co. will look to turn the tide and harken back to memories of Rio de Janeiro, where the U.S. took gold in 2016. In addition, one more gold medal for Ledecky would be her ninth, breaking a tie with Jenny Thompson and giving her the most by any American woman in Olympic history.
