[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, 13 different countries have won swimming golds. The US can't assume it's winning every relay anymore and there's no one person picking up 5-8 golds. Other countries use the same training methods and lots of foreign swimmers train at American colleges.[/quote] Case in point. Leon Marchand (France) has been training with Bob Bowman ( Phelps’ coach) at Arizona State. Marchand has won 3 golds.[/quote] Exhibit B: Canadian phenom Summer McIntosh, who trains in Florida. The rest of the world is catching up (or is already caught up) with the US, and is getting faster and better. That’s a good thing IMO. More fuel for the competition in 2028 on home turf. Gone are the days when we had Michael Phelps to rack up several individual golds and boost our medal count… the game has changed and it’s time for the US (particularly the men) to rise to the challenge.[/quote]
