Her other world record, a 49.72, came in the 100-yard Free. That time broke the old record of 51.54, also formerly held by Sandy Neilson-Bell.
Nine-time Olympic medalist Dara Torres was the first USA Swimmer to compete in four different Olympics - 1984, 1988, 1992, and 2000, , 1992, 1988, 1984. Her Olympic medals breakdown as four gold, one silver and four bronze.
Her meet results show that she has the speed to qualify for the 2008 US Olympic Trials. Will Torres, a nine-time Olympic swimming medalist (from four different Olympics!) try to make it to number five? I hope so - good luck, Dara!
Swim On!
