Vanderkaay went 3:43, not bad at all. He's also swimming the 800 by the way: omegatiming.com/.../C51A1_SLHeats_17_Heats_Men_800_Free.pdf
The first three heats of that heat sheet are filled with NT's and fabricated entry times. Looks like a very fast Masters meet, until you scroll down to page 2.
How was the selection process decided for the 800 since they didn't swim it at WCTs? I know that Phelps could have done the 50 fly since he won the 100 fly. Just wondering. Jackson Wilcox is in it too. Gosh, I hope that Vanderkaay can put together a medal winning performance in this race. The 400 Olympic gold medalist didn't even make it back. It was good to see Davies from GBR make it back in the 400 since he is more of a 1500 guy and OW Olympic medalist.
I keep on thinking that Markus Rogan is from Switzerland even though he is from Austria. Duh! I wonder if he will do anything in the 200 back. He didn't look as good in Beijing as he did in Athens where he got the silver in the 200 back.
Oh cool, Markus Rogan is still competing. I thought that he was going to retire. He is actually grew up in Switzerland until his parents moved to, I think, DC when he was 12. So, he actually lived in the country he represents unlike other US-citizens who swim for foreign countries.
What happened to Vanderkay.....look at the last 100 split the German pulled off. NO ONE was catching him, holy crap!!!

Once again proof that the dolphin kick in *** needs to go.
At the start of the 2nd semi of 50 ***, Van der Burgh actually COMPLETED his dolphin kick before his hands or arms started to move.
Ah well.
i was wondering if anyone else saw that too.
