Emma McKeon has cemented herself as swimming s sprint queen after claiming gold in the women s 100m freestyle at the Tokyo Olympics ahead of her great friend Cate Campbell.
The 27-year-old bounced back from the disappointment of the women s 4x200m relay on Thursday and fought off teammate Campbell and Hong Kong s rising star Siobhan Haughey to win her second gold medal of the Games.
McKeon led from start to finish in the race, breaking another Olympic record after setting the competition s fastest ever time earlier during her heat.
Campbell told the gold medallist: I m so proud of you as the pair embraced in the pool immediately after her win.
