Katie Ledecky made history in multiple ways on Saturday at the Paris Olympics, winning her fourth straight gold medal in the women's 800m freestyle. Ledecky joined Team USA legend Michael Phelps as the only swimmers to win four Olympic gold medals in the same event. If that wasn't enough history, Ledecky's gold medal was the ninth of her Olympic career, the most Olympic golds won by any American woman in the history of the Games.
So, if any medal ceremony was going to be all about Ledecky, it would be this one, especially with the potential for this to be her final Olympics.
