the_milky_wayMen's 200m Freestyle Final
Tonight's championship race saw another victory for the fantastic freestyler from down-under. A swim which gives Ian Thorpe eight positions on the World All Time Top Ten Performances list, sharing with only one other athlete, Pieter vdHoogenband, NED, who holds 5th and 6th places.
Grant Hackett, 1:46.67, was half a second away from his best with a strong second placing. Newcomer, Jason Cram, who trains with Coach Doug Frost, Thorpe's mentor, gets his chance to move into the national 800m Freestyle relay team as well as an individual 200 in Manchester, following his bronze medal swim in 1:49.89. Fourth spot on the relay team will go to Leon Dunne, Yeronga Park, who, will swim in the relay at Manchester, unlike his swim-less visit to Fukuoka in 2001.
Yeah Leon!!!
