King, alongside fellow US swimmer Annie Lazor, won silver and bronze medals, respectively, in the women’s 200-meter breaststroke, marking the seventh time two Team USA swimmers medaled in the same event.

The 24-year-old pushed back against the media and American public, who, in her view, often downplay a silver or bronze finish.
