- Scottish swimmer first Briton to win four medals at one Games
- 4x100m medley relay makes it three silvers and one gold
If you had not just seen Duncan Scott do it, you could never have guessed what he had achieved. His silver in the men’s 4x100m medley relay made him the first British athlete ever to win four medals at one Olympic Games, and the most successful British swimmer in Olympic history, on the most successful British swimming team in Olympic history. He and the team have broken records that have stood since the London Olympics of 1908. “It’s probably not properly settled in,” was just about all Scott, 24, had to say about it in the minutes after his last race. “It’s not really hit me what’s happened.”
