American swimmer Katie Ledecky has long dominated the distance freestyle circuit, and on Tuesday that dominance continued. Ledecky won the 1500m freestyle by a stunning 19 seconds. Ledecky has broken her own record in this event time and time again, and it appears that no one is touching her in this race for some time.
Ledecky looks awfully lonely in Lane 4.
With the win Tuesday, Ledecky currently holds the top six spots among women in the nearly mile-long race. Despite her utter rout on Tuesday, her 15:31.82 finish was still six seconds off her best time of 15:25.
