You say Lochte and Biede...I agree with all points. You say Lochte and Biedermann are at the same level. I agree, but not at the level they have shown this year. I think both are 1:44-mid swimmers by Shanghai. I guess we shouldn't be surprised with Park, since he swam those Beijing times in LZR legskins. Here's something scary: he could get close to 3:40.07 by London.David Riederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00037990522293462619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1250367211605373057.post-56717177081664458042010-11-14T19:54:51.323+00:002010-11-14T19:54:51.323+00:00I can't see past Lochte at SC worlds either, n...I can't see past Lochte at SC worlds either, no-one can hang with his underwaters.<br /><br />LC is wide open. Phelps at 100% would be strong favourite, but that's by no means a guarantee. After today's swim, Park has to be second favourite after a fit Phelps and has a track record on the biggest stage. Lochte and Biedermann are right around the same level for me, and Yannick Agnel is the wildcard that could shock everyone. <br /><br />What a fantastic all-star event. The two biggest stars of US swimming, Germany's most popular male swimmer, South Korea's Olympic hero and the uber-talented new French hope.Speed Endurancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14365062789141117207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1250367211605373057.post-53593199475454049042010-11-14T16:35:33.043+00:002010-11-14T16:35:33.043+00:00I agree about the 200 free.

For me, Lochte will be all over short course (Phelps definitely and Park probably won't be there), but any one of five guys could win medals in any order in Shanghai.
