TOKYO—After booking her place in Olympic history with a record sixth individual gold medal, world swimming’s most decorated woman Katie Ledecky is confident there’s plenty more to come—and is already talking about a bid to reach the next two Olympics.
The American dominated the 800 meters freestyle final in Tokyo on Saturday to win gold comfortably, beating the record for the most women’s individual Olympic swimming titles held for a quarter of a century by Hungary’s Krisztina Egerszegi.
