How exactly did Michael Phelps manage to win that race this morning?

What is the plunge for distance competition?

And how could we make archery a bit more exciting?

I’m joined by Julian Linden and Ossian Shine on our latest podcast from Beijing. Seven minutes is all it takes. Go on … you know you want to.

Yes, it was great to find out how Phelps managed to win today.

Having looked at the frame-by-frame analysis of the 100 m butterfly, I’m convinced that either Cavic won or it was a tie, but not a Phelps victory. It was a so-called “light touch” by Cavic ahead of Phelps. Cavic even lifted his head out of the water before Phelps touched; another sign that Cavic had touched ahead of Phelps.
