RIO DE JANEIRO_Michael Phelps finished in a three-way tie for silver in the 100-meter butterfly at the Olympic Aquatics Stadium on Friday in the final individual race of his storied career.
Singapore's Joseph Schooling finished in 50.39 seconds, an Olympic record, to outdistance Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time, who touched the wall in 51.14 seconds.
"It's what I had," said Phelps, who reiterated his plans to retire following the Olympics. "It's been a really long week and I knew it was going to be a tough one."
Phelps, with four gold medals at these Games to give him 22 in his career, will compete in the 400-meter medley relay Saturday.
