Actually, yes, it does. His fly hasn't undergone any major stroke changes in the last 6 months?
His free? definately and I think that combined with the layoff, showed thru a little.
Don't forget that in the 100 fly he wore legs only in Beijing but wore a full body today, which may well be a part of his 0.7 sec drop. And his fly does look better than his free, coupled with any additional sprint work he has been doing.
Cavic was out only 0.01 slower than his 50 time -- which won gold -- and didn't really die too badly at all. Phelps showed more speed than I thought he had in him in staying at his hip. A fun race to watch.
