The men's 200fr was just amazing, Phelps swam the first 50 in 24.25, faster than his first 50 in Beijing but then slowed down. Lochte had his strategy, he just KNEW that Phelps wouldn't be watching him in the third 50 and accelerated. Phelps's third 50 was 27.20, so slow, he couldn't catch Lochte coming home.
My opinion is that Phelps could win but screwed up. Great times anyway, 1:44.44 and 1:44.79.
Phelps' 3rd 50 of the 200 free had been his strength the last few years but lack of training has made it a weakness for now. If he is motivated like he has said recently, then the 3rd 50 over the next year should improve substantially between now and the trials.
