It appears that Swimming World came out with the first Top 12 World Masters Swimmers.
Seems a little strange that there are only 2 people under the age of 50 on this list. Is there an age requirement here that we don't know about?
Where is the Evil Paul Smith's name on this list? He sets at least one National or World Record almost every year.

Off topic, but why is paul smith considered evil? What did he do? I feel a little in the dark. originally posted by ced357
Well......let's see.....I think we all know who is best qualified to answer that question......right Mr. G.S.?....(something about Paul reaching across the laneline (underwater) during last years head to head freestyle matchups between the 2 Smiths ...to "punch" the GoodSmith while the races were still taking place......also something about Paul holding The G.S. underwater for some unspecified amount of time at the conclusion of each of these races to serve as punishment for losing these races to Paul (although taking a close second place at Nationals is not what I would actually consider "losing")......but I think that's actually only the "tip" of the iceberg.....I'm sure mr. G.S. can supply you with a much longer list of evil doings committed by Paul over the years....apparently these 2 Smiths have been locked into mortal combat mode for quite a while now.....Who really knows how far back it actually goes?....(maybe even as far back as college??)
