NPR is in Paris for the 2024 Summer Olympics. For more of our coverage from the games head to our latest updates.

LCM (50 meters) Prelims Live Recaps: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4. Two days into the 2023 World Championships, we published a YouTube video titled “what’s going on with Team USA?” after the Americans finished day one of the meet without a gold medal for the first time since 1994. The common consensus then was that we were just overreacting. Even when Team USA had its worst gold medal count at an Olympics/World Championships since 1994, there were plenty of explanations behind their underperformance: the team went on a red-eye flight from Singapore to Fukuoka, there was only a three-week turnaround from trials to Worlds, and this meet could have just been another repeat of the notoriously 2015 World Championships. The expectation was that the Americans would rise to the occasion during the Olympic year.
