That's the one I was looking for! Thanks Dan.
Should we expect France to be the 50M Free favorite in 2008?
From what I've read - Bousquet has not been nearly the LCM swimmer that he has been in short course. He has a super-fast turn and that advantage disappears in LCM. I don't think Bousquet finaled at the 2004 Olympics in the 50M free. I also read somewhere (maybe collegeswimming.com) that he is improving in LCM. Bousquet set his record in prelims. He won the finals with a 18.90. I think he is the only person to go under 19.
