Torres has opted out of the 100 free in Beijing. Lacy Nyemer(sp?) will swim the individual event in her place.

tjburk,
With your philosophy on the games, there would only be 3-4 viable participants entered in each event.
This... It doesn't matter that I scratch because I wasn't going to medal anyway and it'll make me too tired response is disappointing.
She's the number one female sprinter in the country and she's not swimming the 100 free for the US because it'll get her too tired and risk the rest of her meet. The whole thing sounds strange to me.
She could coast the prelims at the Games and still make the semis in this event no problem.
