- Ryan Murphy and Lilly King book places at Paris 2024
- Ledecky still has 800m and 1500 freestyle to come
It was a night for familiar names at the US Olympic swimming trials. Backstroke star Ryan Murphy is headed to his third Olympics. So is breaststroke queen Lilly King. And the most prominent name of all, Katie Ledecky, locked up a second individual race in Paris. Then there is Katie Grimes, who will swim indoors and outdoors at this year’s Summer Games.
In a hectic session featuring five finals, Ledecky made it two-for-two in Indy by touching first in the 200m freestyle on Monday. Having already won the 400m freestyle on the opening night of the trials, Ledecky showed her speed on the final lap to take the victory in 1min 55.22sec.
