American Swimmer Michael Phelps 2008 Beijing Olympic Photos
American Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps won seven gold medals (200m free, 100m fly, 200m fly, 200m IM, 400m IM, 4x100m free and 4x200m free) and set five world records (200m free, 200m fly, 200m IM, 400m IM and 4x200m free) in one of the most dominant swimming performances ever at the 2007 Worlds. All of the individual event world records that Phelps broke were his own, except for the 200m freestyle, where he shattered Ian Thorpe’s mark from 2001. Phelps shaved .2 of a second off Thorpe’s time and won the race by almost 2.5 seconds.
And now Phelps wants to have eight (8) Gold in 2008 Beijing Olympics.
