Did Michael Phelps Really Win The 100M Butterfly?
I’ll admit to not watching much Olympics coverage this past week, but I did catch Michael Phelps‘ 1/100th-of-a-second victory over Serbian Milorad Cavic. The hype surrounding Phelps was at Favre-sian levels, which is to say, you wouldn’t have been able to avoid it if you wanted to.
In any event, Phelps beat Cavic in the 100m butterfly on Friday by thismuch. Two days later, there’s still a debate as to whether Phelps even won the race, although this photograph seems to indicate he did (the close-up shows Cavic hasn’t yet touched the wall … I think).
