The 2013 Swimming World Championships continue on Wednesday from Barcelona. The events begin at 10 a.m. ET and go until 5 p.m. ET. Below is the complete schedule of events. Watch the live stream HERE.
The Americans had a great outing on Tuesday. Missy Franklin and Katie Ledecky each won her second gold medal of the meet, and Matt Grevers led the U.S. to a 1-2 finish in the backstroke, ESPN reports.
"We've had an absolutely incredible evening," Franklin told reporters. "I'm so proud of all my teammates."
Ledecky, only 16, has shined in the meet. She's emerged as one of the country's premiere distance swimmers, and her greatest feat of the meet thus far is her obliteration of the world record in the 1,500 freestyle by more than six seconds.
"It was motivating watching Katie destroy the world record from the ready room," Grevers said. "That really got us psyched up."
The only surprise for the Americans was Ryan Lochte, who struggled to a fourth-place finish in the 200 free.
"It wasn't my night," Lochte said. "But I have to put it behind me because I still have many races to swim."
Lochte, a three-time Olympian, didn't have as much time to train this year because of his participation in his reality TV show, "What Would Ryan Lochte Do?"
"It was kind of a tough swim for him," U.S. men's team coach Bob Bowman said. "He has obviously not had a season with his characteristic preparation. But he's racing tough. He'll be back tomorrow. He'll be fine."
