There’s no argument that Michael Phelps has been having a spectacular final showing at the Olympic Games. The GOAT continues to cement his name in the history books by upping his gold medal count with each finals he swims in.
But tonight’s 100 fly final could arguably show Phelps some of his toughest competition yet. Singapore’s Joseph Schooling dove in for prelims Thursday morning on a mission: to claim Singapore’s first ever Olympic medal in swimming. And based on the times Schooling has been throwing down he’s aiming for a gold.
Schooling topped prelims of the 100 fly with a 51.41, leading the competition by .11 seconds. Later that night in semi-finals Schooling continued to turn up the heat on the competition posting the only sub-50 second swim of the night at a 50.83. His time not only kept him at the top of the leaderboard going into finals, but also sits as the fastest time posted in the world for 2016.
