Ledecky won with a time of 8:05.62, both a world championships record and the fourth fastest time in the history of the 800m free. Pallister wasn't far behind (8:05.98), with McIntosh claiming bronze (8:07.29).

Summer McIntosh came up short in a thrilling bid for her fourth-straight gold at the world aquatics championship in Singapore.
