Australian's love nicknames for their swimmers. First there was the 17-year-old, "Thorpedo", now there is the 14-year-old, "C-Bomb".They love hyperbole and exaggeration down there. Emily Seebohm, recently tagged the "C-Bomb" by the Oz press stormed the 100m back at Australian Nationals:
From the Herald Sun: In a thrilling finish to the final of the women's 100m backstroke, the unheralded Seebohm tied with Zimmer to book a place on Australia's world championship team. Seebohm touched first at the 50m turn, but the Queensland schoolgirl could not be separated at the wall with Zimmer as they both finished in 1:01.09.
