Frenchman Leon Marchand brought the nation to its feet again, scoring a thrilling come-from-behind win in the 200-meter butterfly and stamping his name on these Games.

The Arizona State product needed an Olympic-record time to overtake Milak Ristof, who had previously held the Games' mark in this event. Marchand trailed throughout but then kicked it into gear in the final 50 to overtake Ristof.

Marchand's time of 1:51.21 edged out the Hungarian's previous record of 1:51.25 set in Tokyo.

Korbin Albert, who is making her debut on the world stage, has scored against Australia to widen the U.S. lead to 2-0.

This is Albert's first international goal.

If Katie Ledecky wins a medal in the 1,500-meter freestyle today, she would tie the record for the most medals won by an American woman in Olympic history with 12.

If she wins gold, and she is the heavy favorite, she will tie swimmer Jenny Thompson’s record for the most Olympic gold medals by an American woman with eight.

Ledecky could leave Paris as the most-decorated female Olympian in U.S. history. After the 1,500 freestyle, she is still expected to compete in the 4x200 freestyle relay tomorrow and the 800 freestyle Saturday.

Thompson and swimmers Dara Torres and Natalie Coughlin also have 12 total medals.

America has a 5-4 advantage in the second set, after winning the first set 6-2. USA's Austin Krajicek and Rajeev Ram will serve to try to win the match over Nadal and Alcaraz.

Sweden's Sarah Sjostrom won the 100-meter freestyle, edging out American Torri Huske and Hong Kong's Siobhan Haughey.

Huske's silver follows the Arlington, Virginia, native's gold Sunday night in the 100 butterfly.

Haughey, already the most-decorated Olympian in the former British colony’s history, won bronze in the 200 free earlier this week.

Sjostrom — who just became the oldest gold medalist in the event at 30 — said she almost didn’t compete in the 100 free but that she showed up because her coach insisted.

She added that she had been dreaming about winning gold in the race.

“It’s almost like I’ve seen it somewhere before,” she said, noting that she wanted to see how it played out in real life.

Huske said she's "not necessarily shocked" to have won the silver today even though "semis showed this was anyone's games," she said.

She added that "it's so nice to share these moments with [my family], it makes it so much more special."

Huske doesn't have a plan for the future, but for now, she's going to just keep swimming because she said she loves doing it.

A handful of substitutions were made 65 minutes into the game to offer some of Team USA's lead starters a break as the team prepares to go into the next round of the Olympics.

Trinity Rodman, Rose Lavelle and Emily Fox are out as Lynn Williams, Korbin Albert and Casey Kreuger walk on. Within a few moments of entering the game, Albert was hit with a yellow card.

Crystal Dunn was also replaced during halftime, with Jenna Nighswonger brought on in her place.

Team USA finished seventh in men's team saber after being knocked out by lower-ranked Iran in the first round. The U.S. team was composed entirely of Harvard students or alumni and had high hopes for a medal before their early elimination.

Iran fell to France in the bronze medal match. South Korea and Hungary's battle for gold is underway.

Germany’s Lea Schueller scored her second goal against Zambia in this match, putting them even further ahead of Australia in the Group B standings.

The European team went into today tied with Australia for second place in the group, looking to get a high-scoring match in order to guarantee a slot in the knockout rounds.
