So, Masters swimming is not "real" swimming? Interesting perspective....I think most around here would probably disagree with that.
It's real, but it ain't the Olympics. There's a big difference between ditching an event at a masters meet and ditching one at the Olympics.
I think this has already been mentioned, but if she had no intention of swimming the 100 in the Olympics why didn't she opt to swim a fast enough time in prelims or semis to get her on the relay (a la Phelps and Lochte)? I have to think it has to do with her competitiveness. She had to prove she could win that event. You can decide for yourself whether this is selfish or not.
