Bobby Finke Sets World Record in 14:30.67, Defends Gold in Men's 1500m Freestyle at Paris Olympics
Aug 4, 2024, 04:56 PM
Bobby Finke set a new world record in the men's 1500m freestyle at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Finke's time of 14:30.67 broke Sun Yang's 12-year-old record by .35 seconds. This victory also marked the first individual gold medal for a U.S. male swimmer at the Paris Olympics. Finke led the race from the start, maintaining a strong pace and finishing ahead of Italy's Gregorio Paltrinieri and Ireland's Daniel Wiffen, who took silver and bronze respectively. This achievement is particularly significant as it is the first time an American male swimmer has won an individual gold in Paris, with the last occurrence being in 1900, excluding the 1980 boycott. Finke's historic 1,500 freestyle was also the final individual Men's Swimming event, and he successfully defended his Olympic gold.
