The men’s 800 free relay final was highlighted by a tough battle for second with the USA jumping to the lead after a strong first leg by Conor Dwyer (1:45.23). Young Texan Townley Haas solidified the USA’s lead with a dynamic 1:44.14 split before handing off to veterans Ryan Lochte  (1:46.03) and Michael Phelps (1:45.26). The quad posted a combined time of 7:00.26 for first and Phelps’ 21st Olympic gold medal.

The battle for second was highlighted by the men of Japan and Great Britain, with Japan holding second for much of the race. A strong anchor leg, however, by Great Britain’s James Guy boosted the Brits up and ahead of the Japanese for the silver medal. The relay team of Stephen Milne (1:46.97), Duncan Scott (1:45.05), Dan Wallace (1:46.26), and Guy (1:44.85) posted a combined time of 7:03.13.

Posting an awfully close third was the Japanese team of Kosuke Hagino (1:45.34), Naito Ehara (1:46.11), Yuki Kobori (1:45.71), and Takeshi Matsuda (1:46.34) with a final time of 7:03.50.
