Katie Ledecky dominates 400m free at TYR Pro Swim Series

Katie Ledecky won the women’s 400m free by seven seconds on Friday evening at the TYR Pro Swim Series stop in Knoxville, Tennessee. It marked Ledecky’s third win of the meet; the five-time Olympic gold medalist won the 200m free and 400m IM yesterday. She’ll conclude her program in Knoxville by competing in the 1500m tomorrow.

Other American stalwarts have also had strong showings in Knoxville. Three-time Olympic gold medalist Ryan Murphy won tonight’s 100m back final by more than a second, while four-time Olympic medalist Simone Manuel has also seen her share of success, winning the 50m free tonight and finishing second to Ledecky in yesterday’s 200m free.
