There's been a bit of discussion about Thorpe's weakness in breaststroke in the IM.
So here are the splits for all of the finalists:
Phelps 29.04 Thorpe 30.58 Rosolino 31.44 Sievenen 31.21 Bovell 29.87 Mori 30.99 Clements 30.99
Johns 30.63
I was surprised to see that Thorpe was the 3rd fastest breaststroker in the field, and not
the worst!
But I'm astounded by Phelps' split. Has he ever swum a 100m breatstroke race? The guy must be
capable of a low 60 or even a 59.
