Will Katie Ledecky Compete in 2028 Los Angeles Olympics? She Says…


Katie Ledecky hopes she has another length in her. 

After breaking the record as the most decorated U.S. woman to ever compete in the Olympics in Paris 2024, the swimmer gave insight into her plans for competing in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. 

“I’d love to swim in 2028,” Katie, who served as flag bearer alongside rower Nick Mead, told Jimmy Fallon and Mike Tirico during the Closing Ceremony Aug. 11. “I think swimming in front of a home crowd would be incredible. Just taking it one year at a time, and give my best effort each year.”

Of course, Katie, who is currently 27 and would be 31 during Los Angeles 2028, has a long time to prepare for the next summer games. At the moment, she’s basking in her four 2024 Olympic medal wins—which include two gold medals, one silver and one bronze—during an extended stay in Paris.
