He's the youngest US swimmer to go pro. Phelps was 15 when he went pro, but at that point he was already an Olympian. swimswam.com/.../ swimswam.com/.../

  • So who is more impressive as an age grouper: Michael Andrew or Chas Morton? I believe Chas Morton still holds NAG records from the early 80s. Even his backstroke swims (with the old turn) are still way up there in the Top 100. I VOTE Chas Morton. want to know why? because he broke MY record in 11-12 100m fly that was a 1.03.81 and lasted for 2 years. the record i broke was P. Oswangy and was set 3 months before i was born. in the last 47 years only 3 have held that record. but i dont know if that is impressive as jessie vassallo's 1500m record from '76 still being there. but i'm also pretty darn proud to say i was the head timer for this WR swim: GUTHRIE David USA 02:32.55 11-08-2012
