Michael Phelps 3-peats gold in 200im at 2012 London Olympics, win over Ryan Lochte
Michael Phelps wins gold three Olympics in a row in the men's 200 meter individual medley. [QUOTE] "To be able to win the gold medal and be the first to three-peat, it means something," said Phelps, whose first gold in London was swimming the anchor on the 4x200 freestyle relay. "It's pretty special and something that I'm very happy for." [/QUOTE]2012 Summer Olympics -- Michael Phelps outduels Ryan Lochte to take gold in 200 IM for 20th medal - ESPN Gold: USA Michael Pheps 1:54.27 Silver: USA Ryan Lochte 1:54.90 Bronze: Hungary Laszlo Cseh 1:56.22. The London Games started rough for Phelps, but is on a roll now - two golds and two silvers in five races (he won eight golds in eight races in the Beijing Olympics). He has two more races to go: the 100 butterfly on Friday and the 4x100 medley relay on Saturday. It is looking like Phelps will get the gold in the 100 fly - in the semifinal right after his 200 im gold win, he was the top qualifier with 50.86 - more than a half second ahead of South Africa's Chad le Clos, who just beat Phelps in the 200 fly in a close touch to the wall. It will also be a rematch against Serbia's Milorad Cavic who lost to Phelps by a hundredth of a second in the Beijing Olympics. Cavic agrees: [QUOTE] "Phelps is out of our league," Cavic said. "It's not fair that I'm talking for everybody, but I'm expecting something special tomorrow. I think he's going to go 50.5."
