A statement ahead of LA28. 😳👏⁣ ⁣ After defeating Canada's Summer McIntosh in the 200m and Katie Ledecky in the 400m earlier in the week, Australia's Lani Pallister made more waves at the Pan Pacs this weekend, becoming the first person to beat Ledecky in the 800m freestyle. 🏊‍♀️⁣ ⁣ Nine-time Olympic gold medalist Ledecky – who has won four Olympic gold medals in the event – has not lost in the 800m since breaking through as a 15-year-old at the London 2012 games. 😮‍💨⁣ ⁣ #womenssports #swimming
