Lilly King has a chance to make history Monday night in the 100-meter breaststroke. With a top-three performance, the Hoosier State native would become the first American to capture three Olympic medals in the 100 breast. King would join Australian Leisel Jones as the only two women to complete the feat.
King is set to race at 3:25 p.m. ET Monday from lane No. 3. Fans can watch the race on NBC and Peacock.
King finished third in the semifinal Sunday inside La Défense Arena, going 1:05.64, while racing between fellow former gold medalists Ruta Meilutytė (2012) and Tatiana Smith (2020). Indiana Swim Club teammate Kotryna Teterevkova placed 16th in the semifinal.
