Michael Phelps Wins 20th Gold Medal, Defeats Chad le Clos

Michael Phelps celebrates another victory after winning the gold medal in the Men’s 200m Butterfly Final during day four of the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics on Tuesday (August 9) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The 31-year-old Team USA swimmer won his 20th gold medal during his Olympic career and he also defeated his rival, South African swimmer Chad le Clos.

Chad famously gave Michael his first international loss in the 200m butterfly in a decade back in 2012.

Before the guys raced in the semi-finals on Monday night, Michael was seen getting his game face on in the ready room while Chad shadowboxed in front of him and even stared him down for a bit!
