sportsillustrated.cnn.com/.../index.html From the man whose WR has been broken four times in the last two months..... I like his attitude. He could never be a USMS swimmer. Too much whining here about everything.

  • From the Swimnews article....WRs in 2008: LONG-COURSE 16/02/08: 200m backstroke - Kirsty Coventry (ZIM) 2:06.39 17/02/08: 50m freestyle - Eamon Sullivan (AUS) 21.56 17/02/08: 100m backstroke - Natalie Coughlin (USA) 59.21 08/03/08: 50m backstroke - Hayley McGregory (USA) 28.00 18/03/08: 4x100m freestyle - (NED) 3:33.62 (Dekker, 53.77; Kromowidjojo, 53.61; Heemskerk, 53.62, and Veldhuis, 52.62) 21/03/08: 100m freestyle - Alain Bernard (FRA) 47.60 22/03/08: 400m medley - Stephanie Rice (AUS) 4:31.46 22/03/08: 50m backstroke - Emily Seebohm (AUS) 27.95 22/03/08: 100m freestyle - Alain Bernard (FRA) 47.50. 23/03/08: 50m backstroke - Sophie Edington (AUS) 27.67 23/03/08: 50m freestyle - Alain Bernard (FRA) 21.50 24/03/08: 50m freestyle - Marleen Veldhuis (NED) 24.09 24/03/08: 400m freestyle - Federica Pellegrini (ITA) 4:01.53 25/03/08: 200m medley - Stephanie Rice (AUS) 2:08.92 27/03/08: 50m freestyle - Eamon Sullivan (AUS) 21.41 27/03/08: 100m freestyle - Libby Trickett (nee Lenton) (AUS) 52.88 28/03/08: 50m freestyle - Eamon Sullivan (AUS) 21.28 29/03/08: 50m freestyle - Libby Trickett (AUS) 23.97 02/04/08: 50m backstroke - Liam Tancock (GBR) 24.47 Slightly interesting at least that not one of them is a breaststroke record. Perhaps just because Brendan Hansen hasn't raced rested yet or with a LZR? Kitajima was close in the 200 at the Japan trials. I suppose no fly because Phelps and Crocker haven't been seriously challenged? I think Brendan Hansen is a Nike guy, and AFAIK, is planning on wearing one of their suits at trials.
