The race marked the 3rd Olympics in a row in which he won a medal in the 100 back after winning gold in the 100 back at the 2016 Rio Games and bronze in the 100 at the 2020 Tokyo Games.
Later in the meet in Paris, Murphy went on to help the US set a new World Record in the 4×100 mixed medley relay as he led off in a 52.08. He currently holds three World Records as he also was a member of the LCM men’s 4×100 medley relay World Record and the SCM men’s 4×50 medley relay record.
