US Swimmer Lilly King Is Mad at Media after Winning Silver Medal | New York Post

Lilly King thinks it’s time to put the gold medal debate to rest.

King, alongside fellow US swimmer Annie Lazor, won silver and bronze medals, respectively, in the women’s 200-meter breaststroke, marking the seventh time two Team USA swimmers medaled in the same event.

The 24-year-old pushed back against the media and American public, who, in her view, often downplay a silver or bronze finish.
