When the Olympics is too much with us, it's time to try something new. A trip to Friday's race walk gold medal race seemed like just the thing — and it was.

In a post-race interview that lasted less than 3 minutes, Gay used the word "weird" no less than seven times to describe how this race went for the Americans.

After the head of the U.S. Olympic Committee issued a formal apology to Rio and Brazil over the U.S. swimmers' behavior, star athlete Ryan Lochte broke his silence over a debunked robbery claim.

It's the most goals ever scored in a women's water polo final, and the widest margin of victory.

Announcing that two swimmers have left a Rio airport after speaking to police, U.S. Olympic Committee CEO Scott Blackmun is apologizing for how Ryan Lochte and three other swimmers behaved.

Coming into this event, Usain Bolt held both the world record, at 19.19 seconds, and the Olympic record, at 19.30. He was the only runner to clock a time of under 20 seconds Thursday.

It was a team that ran alone: The women of the U.S. 4x100-meter relay team raced by themselves under the lights of Rio's Olympic Stadium on Thursday, going against the clock for a shot at the final.

Allyson Felix and her teammates on the U.S. women's 4x100-meter relay team get a second shot to make the final, after successfully arguing that other runners made them drop the baton.

A day after police pulled two of Ryan Lochte's teammates off a U.S.-bound plane to discuss their alleged robbery, police say the swimmers admit the story was a fabrication.

Gunnar Bentz and Jack Conger, two American swimmers who were with Ryan Lochte last weekend when their group reportedly suffered a robbery, are now speaking to police.
