Medal record
|
Reed Malone (born April 3, 1995) is an American competition swimmer who competes in the freestyle events. He has won a total of four medals in a major international competition, two golds, one silver, and one bronze, spanning the World Championships and the Summer Universiade.
Malone first established himself into the world swimming scene at the 2015 Summer Universiade in Gwangju, South Korea, where he produced a tally of three medals, two golds and one bronze. On the third night of the competition, Malone swam his two finals with only an hour in between. First, he lowered his personal best in 1:47.15 to lead the medal haul for the Americans with a gold in the 200 m freestyle.[1] Fresh off his illustrious triumph in the 200 m freestyle, Malone came back later in the session to complete an epic double with a bronze-winning time of 3:50.13 in the 400 m freestyle.[2] Malone followed his double feat by claiming a gold medal with the U.S. team in the 4×200 m freestyle relay three days later. Swimming the second leg, Malone recorded a fastest split of the race in 1:47.06 to pull off a commanding lead for the Americans with a final time of 7:10.82.[3][4]
At the 2015 World Aquatics Championships in Kazan, Russia, Malone achieved a silver medal as a newcomer to the U.S. swimming team in the 4×200 m freestyle relay. He swam a 1:46.92 split on the third leg to maintain a strong, body-length lead for the Americans throughout the race, before losing their defense to the Brits by just four tenths of a second (0.4), finishing with a final time of 7:04.75.[5][6]
