200 metres Individual Medley, Women

Date	8 – 9 August 2016
Status	Olympic
Location	Estádio Aquático Olímpico, Parque Olímpico da Barra, Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro
Participants	39 from 26 countries

Katinka Hosszú had already won the 400 IM (and 100 backstroke) and was expected to double in this race. She was World Champion in both IMs in both 2013 and 2015, and had broken the world record at the 2015 Worlds. She came to Rio almost two seconds ahead of the #2 on the world list, Siobhan-Marie O’Connor of Great Britain. Another medal contender was American Maya DiRado, #3 on the world list, fourth at the 2015 Worlds, and the silver medalist in Rio, behind Hosszú, in the 400 IM.

Form held in this race, as Hosszú won her IM double in 2:06.58, just ahead of O’Connor, who broke the British national record with 2:06.88. DiRado won bronze but was well behind Hosszú and O’Connor. Hosszú would finish Rio with three gold medals and one silver, placing second behind DiRado in the 200 backstroke. DiRado would win four medals, including gold medal in the 200 back and the medley relay.
