The American swimmer finally signed off with 23 gold medals at the Games, out of an overall haul of 28.

This was his fifth Olympic Games appearance. Back in 2000, a 15-year-old Phelps first appeared on the big stage.

At his final event, Phelps put the United States ahead to stay on the butterfly leg of the 4x100 medley relay and Nathan Adrian finished it off, giving the most decorated athlete in Olympic history his 23rd career gold medal.

He man has more medals than India (26). The man's performance has been as exemplary as ever. He has dominated the pool and left his opponents far behind.
