Top-ranked Novak Djokovic had his dreams of tennis gold dashed on Friday while Ethiopia’s Selemon Barega felled the reigning world 10,000-meter Olympic champion, on a day of upsets that saw doping allegations surface at the swimming pool.
Dressel Breaks Record After Losing It and Other Olympics Results
TOKYO (AP) United States swimmer Caeleb Dressel watched his Olympic record fall in the 100-meter butterfly, only to take it right back.
Minutes after Hungary’s Kristof Milak took down the mark in the first semifinal heat, Dressel went even faster with a time of 49.71 seconds in the second heat.
Dressel will be a big favorite in Saturday morning’s final, though he could get pushed by Milak.
Also in the pool, South Africa’s Tatjana Schoenmaker set the first individual swimming world record at the Tokyo Olympics, capturing the women’s 200-meter breaststroke with a time of 2 minutes, 18.95 seconds.
