China clinched its second swimming gold of the Paris Games by winning the men's 4x100m medley relay final on Sunday.

The Chinese quartet of Xu Jiayu, Qin Haiyang, Sun Jiajun and Pan Zhanle touched the wall in three minutes 27.46 seconds, more than half a second ahead of the United States' combination of Ryan Murphy, Nic Fink, Caeleb Dressel and Hunter Armstrong.

France's Yohann Ndoye-Brouard, Leon Marchand, Maxime Grousset and Florent Manadou took bronze, 0.92 seconds behind China.

The result broke the United States' run of 10 successive gold medals in this event dating back to the Los Angeles 1984 Games.

It was Pan's second gold in Paris to go with his 100m freestyle triumph.
