Perhaps, my ***, definitely! The Olympic schedule has been known for ages.
It rubs me the wrong way too, a little too diva-ish. All the protestations about being 41 and getting tired from all that swimming seems a little out of sync with the fact that she dominated the field in the 50 on the last day of trials, setting a new record.
But, in Dara's defense about the schedule, perhaps she entered the 100 only to qualify for the relay, not expecting to be in the top two. That was certainly MY expectation; her winning the 100 was one of the two biggest shocks of the meet (the other being Hansen's implosion in the 200 ***).
