Michael Phelps will hit the swimming block with the chance of capturing gold once again. Phelps will compete in the Men's 100m Butterfly on Friday evening from London.
But before Phelps gets to swim, Elizabeth Beisel and Missy Franklin will try to capture gold and silver in the Women's 200m Backstroke. They both finished first and second in the heats on Thursday. Beisel finished first and Franklin came in second.
Following the Women's 200m Backstroke, Phelps will swim in the 100m Butterfly, where Chad la Clos will look to mess up Phelp's party once again. Phelps finished more than a second ahead of le Clos in the heats, but it would be good to see what happens when the players are in the same pool at the same time.
The Women's 800, Freestyle will take center stage after the Men's 100m Butterfly and this will be followed by the fastest race there is, the Men's 50m Freestyle.
Now this race should be exciting. American Cullen Jones and Cesar Cielo finished tied for first place in the heats as they both touched in 21.54. American Ervin Anthony same in at a close third place with a 21.62.
