The United States' 64-year unbeaten streak in the men's 4x100 meters medley ended at the Paris Olympics on Sunday as China swept to a seismic win at La Defense Arena.
Amid deafening cheers at the converted rugby stadium, the 100 meters freestyle world record holder Pan Zhanle brought China home with a truly jaw-dropping swim as he, Xu Jiayu, Qin Haiyang and Sun Jiajun won in a time of three minutes, 27.46 seconds.
Pan will take enormous credit for defeating them as he celebrated his 20th birthday in style, rocketing to the wall in 45.92 seconds.
