NANTERRE, France (AP) — Katie Ledecky has tied one of swimming's most impressive records.

Chances are, she'll have it all to herself by the time she completes the Paris Olympics.

The 27-year-old Ledecky bumped her career total to 12 medals with a dominating victory in the 1,500-meter freestyle Wednesday night, equaling three fellow Americans — Dara Torres, Natalie Coughlin and Jenny Thompson — for the most ever by a female swimmer.

Ledecky was first an Olympian in 2012
