Phelps gets 19th gold with 4x100m relay win
Most decorated Olympian of all time helps Team USA to 1st win in event since Beijing
Rio de Janeiro
AT his fifth, and supposedly last Olympics, Michael Phelps finally let his guard down, sobbing along with his team mates after collecting his 19th gold medal by helping the United States win the men's 4x100m freestyle relay in Rio.
With his infant son Boomer watching from the stands, cradled in the arms of his mother, Phelps's fiancee Nicole Johnson, the greatest Olympian of all time began to weep after two of his teammates, Ryan Held and Caeleb Dressel, started to bawl. "They were making us cry," Phelps said. "The younger guys started crying, I started crying."
