Olympic 2016 Results: Tracking Medal Count for Each Country on Tuesday

The medal count got a healthy dose of Team USA on Monday, as swimmers Conor Dwyer, Kathleen Baker, Ryan Murphy and Lilly King all grabbed some hardware from the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

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

Elsewhere, medals were handed out in weightlifting, shooting, rugby, gymnastics and more. A live-updating medal count can be found below.

A Budding Rivalry in the Pool

The highest drama of the night revolved around King's war of finger wags and words with Russian Yulia Efimova, who recently served a 16-month suspension for doping and failed another drug test leading up to the games in Rio.

King has made it clear how she feels about Efimova's history. "If that's what she feels she needs to be able to compete, whatever, that's her deal," King told reporters, per the Associated Press (via NBCOlympics.com). "I'm here to compete clean for the U.S., and that's what I'm going to do."

The 19-year-old American not only competed clean, she won gold and set an Olympic record in the process. Efimova came in 0.53 seconds after King to claim the silver.

And this won't be the end of King and Efimova's rivalry. The two will compete in the 200-meter breaststroke later this week and are both young enough to see each other plenty over the next few years.

USA Reaches 20 Years of Dominance in the 100-Meter Backstroke

Jeff Rouse won gold in the men's 100-meter backstroke at the 1996 Games in Atlanta, and Team USA hasn't lost the event in any Olympics since.

The streak continued Monday night, as Ryan Murphy cruised to an Olympic record of 51.97 seconds.

"That was a really fast final," Murphy said, per NBCOlympics.com's Rachel Lutz. "Everyone stepped up their game, and I was lucky that my game was a little bit better tonight. I'm super happy with the result, and it hasn't really sunk in yet."

Murphy may not have much time for those results to sink in, as he'll be back in the pool for the 200-meter backstroke Wednesday.

More Gold to be Handed Out Tuesday

Several events, including the men's 4x200-meter freestyle relay and the women's 200-meter individual medley, will wrap up Tuesday.
