USA mixed 4x100M medley relay team breaks world record to win gold at Olympics

Gold medals have been hard to come by in the pool for the Americans, but their most recent one came in grand style.

The mixed 4x100 medley relay team won the gold medal on Saturday by setting a world record.

Ryan Murphy, Gretchen Walsh, Nic Fink, and Torri Huske swam the race in 3:37.43, beating the world record by 15-hundredths of a second (China, at 3:37.55, also beat the previous world record, but came in second).
