FINA...in their grand wisdom, has decided NOT to make Libby Lenton's 52.99 as a world record. This has been reported the the Herald Sun out of Australia.
Once again, FINA shows that it is run by politicans, not swimmers or swimming fans.
So, Thank You FINA for once again screwing things up.

When someone is 4 seconds behind another swimmer, I don't see how in the world a person can draft. If they were within a body length or less, then yes, drafting comes into effect. At 4 seconds, Libby was eating his waves, not riding his draft.
Devil's advocate says: she was 4 seconds behind at the end of the race, but not for the whole race.
