David McCrackenAug 8, 2016

Katinka "The Iron Lady" Hosszu of Hungary earned her nickname on Day 3 of the 2016 Rio Olympics with a gold-medal performance in the women's 100-meter backstroke.

It marked her second gold medal of the Games, but Hosszu wasn't the only Olympian who enjoyed her time on the podium on Monday. 

In fact, 14 gold medals were handed out in total on Day 3, which led to some movement in the overall standings. Take a look below at the updated medal count for each country entering Day 4:

For the second day in a row, the United States struck gold in the swimming pool.

After a Day 2 that saw Michael Phelps win his 19th Olympic gold medal and Katie Ledecky's world-record swim, the USA's men's and women's teams still weren't satisfied.

Lilly King and Ryan Murphy took the gold in women's 100-meter breaststroke and men's 100-meter backstroke, respectively. 

King's performance during the 100-meter breaststroke was a phenomenal one, as she set new Olympic record with a time of 1:04.93. King broke the previous Olympic record of 1:05.17 set by Australia's Leisel Jones back in the 2008 Beijing Games.

Winning "clean" as King did refers to her ability to compete and win in the Olympics without cheating. 

King was seen wagging her finger at Yulia Efimova of Russia yesterday at the preliminary heats. Efimova was allowed to compete in the Rio Games despite testing positive for the now-banned substance meldonium earlier this year and having a previous suspension.

The gesture would have made Dikembe Mutombo proud. 

After a disappointing 2012 London Olympic Games, Hungary's best swimmer Hosszu is redeeming herself in 2016. 

She already obliterated the 400-meter individual medley with a time of 4:26.36, setting a new world record as her husband and coach, Shane Tusup, watched and screamed from the sidelines.

Her performance in the 100-meter backstroke, while not as historic, was still dominant as she outlasted America's Kathleen Baker for her second gold medal of the Games.
