Hungary’s Milák wins uncontestable gold in Tokyo 2020 – Video

Defending World Champion Kristóf Milák won the final of the 200-meter butterfly at the Tokyo Olympics on Wednesday morning (Hungarian time), thus winning a historic gold medal. The other Hungarian finalist, Tamás Kenderesi, finished in fourth place.

M4 Sport writes that this is the first Olympic gold medal of the 21-year-old swimming classic.

Interestingly, he is now the European Champion, World Champion, world record holder and now also Olympic champion of the track.

The swimmer took the lead in the first 50 metres, even though his South African rival Chad le Clos, London’s champion, started quite strong. Although Milák fell to third place at 100 metres, he gained a confident advantage by the second hundred as his rivals became tired.
