Scruggs had topped Italy’s Alice Volpi in her semifinal and was hoping to upset Kiefer in the final for her first gold. But she’ll have to settle for a silver medal.

Two more medals for the United States made it 12 for the Americans overall in Paris. 

It’s the third gold medal for the team as Kiefer joined the men’s swimming 4x100-meter freestyle team and swimmer Torri Huske with top prizes in France.
