In other news GO FUCKING KATIE LEDECKY!!!
I would say that Serena, Tiger, Federer, and Phelps are the best individual sport athletes of the past 15-20 years. Hard to compare across sports to pick a definitive winner.

Serena is up there, too. For sure. And Tiger is definitely allowed in the conversation. But Phelps?... CHRIST.

That was cool and all but Maya Dirado coming from behind to win the earlier race was so super exciting.

The 50m is just absolute madness. So much splashing. Really cool to see Adrian win. Great night of swimming.

Lilly King needs to stfu about Justin Gatlin.

Or maybe Justin Gatlin shouldn't have been a cheater.

I don't know which comments you're referring to but I haven't seen her say anything that I don't agree with. But I also haven't gone looking for her comments. Or Justin's.

You have to go back quite a ways to get to Gatlins doping issues. People are allowed to move on from their past mistakes. King sounds like a brat who doesn't have enough life experience to realize that yet.
