medals during their time in Paris.

These are moments that have been decades in the making.

There was Simone Biles making her triumphant Olympic return with three gold medals, Katie Ledecky is now up to a record nine gold medals after proving she’s still queen of the pool once

again and a heart-stopping victory for Noah Lyles in the 100 meters in track & field. Cole Hocker captivated the nation — and his dad — with his thrilling win in the men’s 1500m race to

capture gold.

golds at 40 apiece.
