Phelps Can Still Win With Old, Slow Suit

Even though some blamed his loss to Paul Biedermann yesterday on his outdated Speedo LZR Racer, today he was able to win and break his own world record wearing the suit. He swam 200 meters of butterfly in 1:51.51, beating his record of 1:52.03 that was set at the last Olympics. [NYT]
