American track star Allyson Felix won a record-breaking 10th medal making her the most decorated woman in track and field history and tying her with track legend Carl Lewis for the most Olympic medals ever by a U.S. athlete in the sport Tokyo2020
She won a record 10th Olympic medal on Friday after finishing third in the 400 metres, becoming the most decorated woman in track and field history as she surpassed Merlene Ottey in the all-time Olympic medal table in her final individual Olympic race.
Widely expected to contend in Saturday's 4x400m relay final, Felix would break Carl Lewis' American medal record if she reaches the podium yet again at her fifth and final Games, a prospect Lewis appeared to welcome. She is only the third track and field athlete to win a medal at five different Games, after starting her Olympic career as a teenager, winning silver in the 200m at Athens 2004.
With six Olympic gold medals and 13 world titles to her name, Felix's resilience extends far beyond the track: she gave birth to her daughter, Camryn, via an emergency C-section in 2018 after medical complications required the baby to be born at 32 weeks.
