It's supposed to be a secret, but what will the boy swim this summer?
Definite, TRIALS
200 fly
200 IM
400 IM
200 free (especially for 800 free relay)
Probable, TRIALS
100 fly (especially for 400 medley relay)
100 free
Maybe, TRIALS
200 back
400 free??? (I have NO idea; it doesn't seem like he's training for it)
Definite, BEIJING
200 fly
200 IM
400 IM
But what would his other 2 individual events be?
EDIT: mod edited for me!

He's a lock on both of those 100s also, although he may only swim the 1 free to get onto the relay and swim a prelims heat of that for the medal.
If I were guessing at his events at the olympics it would be, without looking at the schedule.
4x200 free relay, 4x100 free relay, 4x100 medley, 200 fly, 100 fly, 200 back, 200 free, 200 IM, 400 IM. That would make 9 events, even if he just cruises some opening heats of the relays, thats a lot.
