Dressel Triumphs in Close Race Against Kristof Milak
US swimmer Caeleb Dressel has once again proven his dominance in the pool, setting a new world record in the men's 100m butterfly final at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Dressel finished the race in an astonishing 49.45 seconds, breaking his previous record of 49.50 seconds.
The race was a close one, with Dressel facing stiff competition from Hungarian swimmer Kristof Milak. Milak, who won silver in the 200m butterfly earlier in the Games, pushed Dressel hard but ultimately fell short. The Hungarian finished second with a time of 49.68 seconds.
With this victory, Dressel has now won his third gold medal of the Tokyo Olympics. He previously won gold in the 4x100m freestyle relay and the 100m freestyle. Dressel is also the reigning world champion in both the 100m and 200m butterfly events.
Dressel's performance in the 100m butterfly was a testament to his exceptional talent and determination. He has proven himself to be one of the greatest swimmers in the world and is sure to continue to make history in the years to come.
