Then, Australian <strong>Mitch Larkin<\/strong> came into the fray and began rewriting the backstroke history books again.<\/p>\n<p>Larkin, the winner of the 100 and 200 backstroke world titles last summer, blasted a 1:53.34 in Tokyo last week, leapfrogging him over <strong>Tyler Clary<\/strong> on the all-time performers list to become the fourth-fastest man in history in the event, and 1.5 seconds behind <strong>Aaron Peirsol\u2019s<\/strong> world record. Earlier today in Doha, Larkin went after a fast time in the 100 backstroke, and recorded a 52.26 to move into sixth-fastest all time.<\/p>\n<p>Larkin, 22, has made exponential improvements in the past year to become the new face of backstroke. He\u2019ll race the 200 back tomorrow in Doha for a chance to break 1:53 and enter into a new stratosphere of accomplishment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This edition of The
