hi all, I'm writing from Italy. Hope not to be politically incorrect, you know, sometimes one uses wrong expressions which may be offensive without knowing it - English is not my language.

My question: has someone understood why there are no black swimmers at the top of the world rankings? is there a physiologic reason? Thank you Antonio
I think the main reason why there are not many elite black swimmers is because the top athletes choose other sports like basketball, football, and baseball.
And very few American born blacks play baseball these days, so that one is quickly falling off the list...
But, yeah, this is it in a nutshell. There is absolutely no physiological reason. It's purely historical and cultural.
