On Sunday afternoon, Torri Huske won gold in the women's 100m butterfly. It's Huske's second gold of the Paris Olympics after she placed first with three of her Team USA compatriots in the women's 4x100m relay on Saturday. It was also a bit of an upset.
Huske was trailing for most of the race but closed the gap on her Team USA teammate, Gretchen Walsh, in the final seconds. Walsh is not only decorated on her own but is one day removed from setting an Olympic record in the 100m butterfly semifinals, posting a 55.38 time to break Sweden's Sarah Sjostrom's record from 2016. After she got off to a quick lead in the pool on Sunday it seemed inevitable she'd follow up her record with a gold.
