Hungary's Katinka Hosszu snared her third gold medal at the Rio Olympics on Tuesday with a gut-busting win in the women's 200m individual medley final.
The 27-year-old led from start to finish to win the gruelling multi-stroke event in a time of two minutes 06.58 seconds, just 0.46 outside the world record she set at last year's world championships in Russia.
Britain's Siobhan-Marie O'Connor took the silver in 2:06.88while the bronze medal went to American Maya DiRado in 2:08.79.
She also broke the world record in the 400 medley in Rio and was a surprise winner of the 100m backstroke, joining an elite group of female swimmers to have won three individual gold medals at a single Olympics.
