BUDAPEST, Hungary – While the spotlight is on Katie Ledecky any time she swims, Caeleb Dressel was able to bask in some of that glow Sunday at the 17th FINA World Championships.
Dressel, the 20-year-old Olympic gold medalist competing in his first long course World Championships, set two American records and won a gold medal in the 400m free relay on day 1 of the competition.
His American records were two of five set Sunday at the Duna Arena, and his gold medal just one of three for the United States.
