Rio Twitter Recap Day 4: It’s All About America’s Greats

Night four was incredibly entertaining, a fun trend that we’re starting to notice at these Olympic Games.

Twitter was aflame after Katie Ledecky earned her second individual gold in the 200 free, and then Michael Phelps roared to a 200 fly gold right afterwards for more buzz on the interwebs.

Phelps was back to anchor the American 4×200 free relay, and there, he claimed gold medal #21.
