Mandatory Credit: Rob Schumacher-USA TODAY Sports PARIS -- Australia's Cameron McEvoy took his first Olympic gold medal when he won the men's 50 meters freestyle at the Paris Games on Friday, denying Olympic champion Caeleb Dressel of the United States another medal.
Dressel finished sixth, off the pace kept by McEvoy and Britain's Ben Proud, who took the silver medal. France's Florent Manaudou claimed the bronze 12 years after he won gold at London 2012.
McEvoy is the first Australian man to win the shortest distance on the program.
