Olympic Swimming 2021: Men's 4x100M Freestyle Relay Medal Winners and Times

The United States repeated as the gold-medal winner in the men's 4x100-meter freestyle relay on Sunday night.

The quartet of Caeleb Dressel, Blake Pieroni, Bowe Becker and Zach Apple stormed to first place in a time of 3:08.97.

Sunday's victory marked the first gold medal of the Tokyo Olympics for Dressel, who could be one of the most decorated athletes over the next two weeks.

The United States beat out Italy and Australia to capture first place. The Americans now have five overall gold medals in Japan and two of them have come from men's swimming.
