The recent post on David Hasselhoff got me thinking about one hit wonders in Swimming.
Tracy Wickam for 1978's world records in 400 & 800 Free
......4:06 & 8:24 I think....and didn't it take Janet Evans to break these records ?????? Someone may remember this....
Any other one hit wonders ??? (or brief stays at the top?)
Anyone want to speculate on why these young girls can become world class breaststrokers at such a young age? There must be some physiological reason. I suspect it has something to do with the anatomy of the pelvis and this changes with puberty in such a manner that their kick isn't quite as propulsive as it was.
