Anyone heard about this?
““I feel really happy right now,” Franklin said after the backstroke final. She said she considered dropping out of the freestyle race but that she wanted to be eligible for the 4 X 200-meter relay in London, so she stuck with the difficult double. The top four finishers in the 200 free make the U.S. team.”

This is clearly the women’s night! The finals of the 200 Free and 200 IM are going to be fierce. I’m anticipating a great duel between Franklin and Schmitt. I don’t think either of those two is going to play cat ‘n mouse a la Phelps/Lochte last night. Volmer could ride those two to a phenominal time as well.
