Ryan Lochte has won his first head-to-head showdown with Michael Phelps at the U.S. Olympic swimming trials.
The
27-year-old Floridian captured the 400-meter individual medley Monday
night, taking command on the breaststroke leg and holding off Phelps in
the freestyle for a time of 4 minutes, 7.06 seconds. Phelps claimed the
second Olympic spot in 4:07.89.
Tyler
Clary, who took second at last year's world championships, won't even
get a chance to swim the event in London. He faded to third in 4:09.92.
