📺 Re-live #Paris2024! ➡️ oly.ch/3REmN8s Germany’s Lukas Märtens snagged the first swimming gold medal at Paris 2024, holding off a hard-charging Elijah Winnington of Australia in the men’s 400m freestyle final. Märtens swam well ahead of world-record pace throughout much of the race, but slowed in the final 50 metres. He ultimately finished more than a second off Paul Biedermann’s scorching world record of 3:40.07, but still did more than enough to claim the gold medal with a time of 3:41.78. The Republic of Korea's Kim Woomin completed the podium. #Olympics #Paris2024 #Olympics2024 _____________________________________________________ 🇮🇹 #MilanoCortina2026 replays: go.olympics.com/watch 🇫🇷 #Paris2024 replays: oly.ch/P24Replays 🇨🇳 #Beijing2022 replays: oly.ch/B22Replays 🇯🇵 #Tokyo2020 replays: oly.ch/T20Replays 🗞️ News from the #Olympics world: oly.ch/News
