    Watched the video and Bousquet looks like he gained a .2 or .3 over the field on the turn! At the flags before the turn, Cavic in lane 3 actually has the lead. At the turn Cavic, Draganja, Grevers and Bousquet (lanes 3,4,5,6) look to start the flip almost simultaneously. But Bousquet touches .2 before the other 3. He must have had tremendous abdominal tourque...unbelievable! And then look at the push-off. Grevers (5) and Cavic (3) go for the long glide...Bousquet's first to break water and takes 2 strokes before Grevers and Cavic take one. By the time everyone is up, Bousquet has half a body length lead! What does Grevers think at this time--30 yards into a 19.40 50 and he's on Bousquet's hip? So was this the best turn ever?
