Ledecky won her ninth gold and 14th overall medal Saturday, taking the 800-meter freestyle and concluding her fourth Olympic Games in style. She became the most decorated female Olympic swimmer of all time Thursday when she won silver as part of the U.S. 4x200 freestyle relay team for her 13th career medal. But that wasn’t enough for Ledecky, who defended her three-time title in the 800 free. Her nine gold medals is the most ever for a female swimmer and the most for an American female athlete across all sports. It ties her with Larisa Latynina, a Soviet gymnast who won nine golds in the 1950s and 1960s, of any woman in Olympic history. Ledecky has always insisted she doesn’t give much thought to her place in the history books. More importantly, she said, she’s having a good time. “I hope that I’ll look back on it with the same amount of joy and happiness that I feel right now and that I feel every day,” Ledecky told reporters at Paris La Défense Arena.
