Sjostrom completes fly double

BUDAPEST, Hungary, July 29, (Agencies): Caeleb Dressel became the first swimmer to win three gold medals on a single night at the world championships Saturday.

America’s newest star pulled off a stunning triple play, racing three times over the course of about two hours — and winning every time.

He started with a victory in the 50-meter freestyle, came back about a half-hour later to nearly break Michael Phelps’ world record in the 100 butterfly, and closed the night by leading off a world-record performance in the mixed 4x100 free relay.
