Incredible to be a legend at the young age of 26, but that's Ledecky.

The big talking point of these championships though is the ultra dominance of the Australian team.

13 golds to date and a number of world records.

Swimming is such a great sport.

Good to see the U.S. still raking in the medals. Go USA!
