The United States took home the gold medal in the men’s 4×200 meter freestyle relay in Rio on Tuesday night, with a strong start from Conor Dwyer and Townley Haas, and a successful close from Ryan Lochte and Michael Phelps.

Townley Haas’s split in the second leg of the race was a blazing 1:44.14, and Michael Phelps closed with a 1:45.26. The United States finished in 7:00.66, topping Great Britain and Japan.
