Canadian phenom Summer McIntosh claimed the first gold medal of her just-burgeoning career on Monday night with a dominating victory in the 400-metre individual medley.


McIntosh, 17, collected her first medal of any colour on the opening night of swimming, taking a silver in the 400 freestyle behind Ariarne Titmus and ahead of Katie Ledecky. Now, McIntosh has the most prized colour of all. 


“I try to take every event very individually and just do my work, but starting off for me—getting on the podium—is definitely a great way to start,” McIntosh said.
