Soni!

It was a great swim by Soni and congarts to her, she just got the WR so um She didn't smash it, it almost got away from her in the end but great swim. My heart goes out to Liesel not cos she was beaten she swam a great race and good on her for getting silver but apparently she colapsed after the she swam that 200m Breaststroke final, she said she couldn't breathe but she is okay now. Liesel will bounce back and claim her WR again, Amanda Bead broke Liesel's WR at Athens and Liesel reclaimed it. It just how she is, a great breaststroke swimmer! I know you are an Aussie and justifiably proud of your swimmers. But I didn't say Soni smashed the WR. I said she "smashed Leisel with a WR." I hope you'll agree Soni pulled off a huge upset, thoroughly beating the WR holder by over two seconds. I like Leisel for her excellence - even more so because she swims breaststroke in a bit of a vintage flat style like lots of us Masters swimmers. The race was not close at the end.
