Phelps opened with a world record in the 400m individual medley, then he led off an epic victory in the 400m free relay and on Tuesday he broke the world record in the 200m freestyle. Yesterday he won the 200-meter butterfly and the 800-meter freestyle relay. He’s right on pace to break Spitz's 36-year-old record of seven golds in a single Olympics and he's beaten Spitz, Lewis, Soviet gymnast Larysa Latynina and Finnish runner Paavo Nurmi for the most in Olympic history. |
