Women's 4x100m Freestyle Relay Results
2024 Summer Olympics
Team Australia Wins Gold
Team Australia's women's 4x100m freestyle relay team won their third straight gold medal at the 2024 Summer Olympics, becoming the first team to break the previous world record. The team, consisting of Mollie O'Callaghan, Madi Wilson, Shayna Jack, and Emma McKeon, finished in a time of 3:29.69, more than a second ahead of the second-place team from the United States.
The victory was a dominant performance from the Australian team, who led from start to finish. O'Callaghan gave Australia an early lead with a blistering opening leg, and the team never looked back. Wilson, Jack, and McKeon all swam strong legs, holding off challenges from the United States and Great Britain to secure the gold medal.
The win was a special moment for McKeon, who became the most successful Australian swimmer in Olympic history with 13 career medals. It was also a sweet victory for O'Callaghan, who was making her Olympic debut and became the youngest Australian swimmer to win an Olympic gold medal since Ian Thorpe in 2000.
The Australian team's victory was a highlight of the 2024 Summer Olympics and a testament to the depth and talent of Australian swimming.
