Michael Phelps wins 19th Olympic Gold Medal at Rio

Michael Phelps has claimed his 19th Olympic gold medal after unleashing a vintage performance on Sunday. The 31-year-old, who quit the sport after the 2012 Games, was back with a bang in Rio as Team USA eased to victory in the 4×100 meters freestyle relay.




Phelps, who produced a stunning second leg, has now won 23 medals in total, extending his record as the most decorated Olympian of all time.

With son Boomer in attendance, Phelps did his kid proud, along with teammates Caleb Dressel, Ryan Held and Nathan Adrian.
