At French Nationals, Alain Bernard, posted a 21.76 for the 50m free which is faster than any American right now. That time is faster than Wildman, Jones, but equal to Gary Hall's best. Is this an anomaly or is he the new sheriff in town? [Link]Manaudou swam a 8:31.26 for the 800m free but contrast this to Kate Zeigler who according to Wikipedia, "... February 2005, at the FINA World Cup stop in New York, Ziegler won the 800m in 8:16.32, breaking Sippy Woodhead's 25-year-old American Record in that event, which at the time was the oldest American record on the books."
Update: I wonder if Laure Manaudou is going through her "Tiger Woods period" who after falling in love and having a child, Tiger seems more focused on endeavors outside his sport?
Manudou has some swimming to do!
