All but seven members of the USA world championships will be at Palo Alto:
Michael Phelps
Rebecca Soni
Caitlin Leverenz
Natalie Coughlin
Amanda Beard
Eric Shanteau
Chad LaTourette
I suspect everyone wants to go to the Pan American Games, which is the meet selected from this nationals. Pan Ams are in October.
Will be interesting to see how they handle the time change. They got on a plane this morning Shanghai time (last night, US time), and will have to race about 24 hours after landing. Flying west across the International Date Line doesn't affect people as badly, but we'll see how many swim as fast or faster. There will be a few people who didn't go to worlds that will be favored for wins if the worlds people don't step up.
