NANTERRE, France — American distance swimmer and two-time Olympian Bobby Finke didn’t defend his 2021 Olympic championship in the men’s 800-meter freestyle, but he still came away from Tuesday’s final with some hardware.
Finke, the American record holder, finished second with a time of 7:38.75, behind Ireland's Daniel Wiffen with the gold-medal win in 7:38.19, an Olympic record. Gregorio Paltrinieri of Italy won bronze in 7:39.38.
The 24-year-old Finke is also entered in the men’s 1,500-meter freestyle in Paris — heats are set for August 3 with the final on August 4 — and will again look to repeat as the Olympic gold medalist.
