JUST IN: Canadian Kylie Masse has captured silver in the women's 100-metre backstroke at the Tokyo Games
TOKYO -- Canadian Kylie Masse captured silver on Tuesday in the women's 100-metre backstroke at the Tokyo Olympics.
Masse, a 25-year-old from LaSalle, Ont., was in the lead at the 50-metre turn before McKeown came on strong in the end. When the first wave of the pandemic shut down all pools for weeks in the spring of 2020, Masse got into a harness and tethered herself to a fence so she could swim in place in her parents' backyard pool.
