TOKYO (Reuters) – Duncan Scott spoke of the ‘Adam Peaty effect’ after becoming Britain’s joint most-decorated Olympic swimmer of all time on Friday with a silver in the men’s 200m individual medley.
The medal was his third of the Tokyo Games, after 4×200 relay gold and 200m freestyle silver, and fifth from two Olympics. The Scot won two relay silvers at Rio de Janeiro in 2016 and is not done yet.
Britain has won six medals so far in the Tokyo pool, matching the country’s best performance since the 1908 Games, and Scott can become the first British athlete from any sport to win four in a single Olympics when he swims in Sunday’s 4x100m medley relay.
