    Aug. 5 (UPI) — Taylor Knibb clocked the fastest split of any athlete on the final leg to help Team USA climb from fifth place to the podium in the mixed triathlon relay at the Summer Olympics on Monday in Paris.

    The Americans registered a time of 1:25:40, just behind first-place Germany (1:25:39). Knibb beat Great Britain’s Beth Potter in the final leg — a 1.2-mile sprint — in a photo finish.

    Announcers for the event first listed Great Britain as the second-place finisher, but officials ruled that Knibb crossed the finish line before Potter, giving Team USA its 72nd medal of Paris 2024.

    The Americans, who won 10 medals Sunday, have totaled 27 silver, 19 gold and 26 bronze prizes so far in Paris.

    Incredible effort from Taylor Knibb to record the fastest split out of EVERY athlete on the final leg!
