Micheal Phelps rocked the whole sporting world, by winning eight Gold medals at Beijing Olympics 2008 in Swimming. Just made history today in the Water Cube at the Beijing Olympics! The 23-year-old swimming champion is the only person ever to win eight gold medals at a single Olympics (surpassing Mark Spitz).
Moments ago, with the help of his team mates in the 4×100 meter medley relay, Phelps secured his eighth medal. He has now also won 14 Gold Medals in the Olympics, the most by any athlete in the history of the games. He has won a total of 16 medals overall in two Olympics which is the second most all-time behind Larissa Latyina, who has won 18 medals in gymnastics, including 9 Gold Medals.Team USA won in a world record time of 3 minutes 29.34 seconds. Australia finished in 3:30.04 and Japan took bronze in 3:31.18.
Congratulations to Phelps and the United States men’s swim team!
