Katie Ledecky is having quite the week in Fort Lauderdale.
A day after posting the second fastest women's 1500-meter time in history, the nine-time Olympic gold medalist posted her best swim in nine years in the 400-meter freestyle, a 3:56.81 at a Tyr Pro Series meet in Fort Lauderdale. It was her first major appearances since the Olympics in Paris last year.
Significantly, she did it with a comeback win over Summer McIntosh in the final, overtaking the Canadian who broke out in Paris on the final lap.
