The biggest disappointment of the morning, that I noticed, was Ava Ohlgren in the 400 IM. I really thought she'd be in the hunt, but she qualified 12th.
400 Free is going to be great -- little disappointed in Klueh, he took it out slower than his 300 swim in practice --- maybe just a great practice swimmer ?
3:48 for La Tourette -- he is going to be right there in the 1500 ...
Check the first 50 *** split on Lochte -- 34.1 !!!

"Phelps breaks world record in 400m IM"
There were many great swims in the 100 fly. I can't wait til the semis swims and the final. Do we possibly have a new world record in the making.
I don't think so. The Aussies are far faster than the American record (Coughlin and not swimming this event).
Is anyone having problems installing this Microsoft Silverlight to view the live video. I didn't have problems watching the prelims but installation keeps on failing.
