WATCH: Tokyo Olympic Games: Day 14 key moments

Each day, ABC News will give you a roundup of key Olympic moments from the day's events in Tokyo, happening 13 hours ahead of U.S. Eastern Time. After a 12-month delay, the unprecedented 2020 Summer Olympics is taking place without fans or spectators and under a state of emergency due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Allyson Felix makes Olympic history

U.S. sprinter Allyson Felix is now the most decorated female track and field athlete of all time in the Olympics. Felix won the bronze medal in the women’s 400m on Friday, her 10th medal, which ties her with legend Carl Lewis for the most medals for an American Olympic track and field athlete.

This was the fifth Olympics for the 35-year-old sprinter, and today’s bronze will be added to her previous six gold and three silver Olympic medals. Felix is also in the relay pool, and if she runs in tomorrow’s 4x400m relay, she would have a chance to surpass Lewis’ record.
