Who win another gold medal?
by Beata Novomeska

When we speak about swimmers we can ask a question: who win another gold medal? Will it be Michael Phelps? Or some other swimmer? It is said that only a couple of mates can prevent Phelps to win his another gold medal. It depends on him and two another swimmers who will race with him. One of them is Ian Crocker who was eager to win in the 100 fly. Crocker said that he has his goals and Michael his owns. He wouldn't feel bad if he won the race with Michael Phelps. His coach, Eddie Reese said that he hopes that Crocker wins, but it didn't sound very convincing. He thinks that Phelps is a human rocket at the moment.
Another swimmer who can endanger of Phelps is Ryan Lochte. Lochte faces a huge challenge. He has a chance to get over the world's greatest swimmer. Aaron Peirsol, Olympic champion, beat Lochte in the U.S. trials and shares the world record with him. Kirsty Coventry of Zimbabwe can't wait to see who the race will finish. She said that Lochte loves to get in and race the best. Aaron and Michael know that he is a threat for them. She thinks that it will be very exciting races to watch. Phelps has five gold medals and holds five world records. He has become the best Olympian ever. He obtained the six gold medals in Athens. He is said as icon of the games by president Jacques Rogge.
And what about Americans Katie Hoff and Kate Ziegler? Hoff was 11th overall and Ziegler 10th. They finished more than eight seconds off their personal best times. Ziegler is world champion in the 800. She feels strong in the first half of the race, but then she doesn't have much energy to finish the race strong. She said that some days her body doesn't work.
So we will see who the two races win and how everything will finish.
