THOMAS Lurz, the most experienced open water swimmer in the field, proved he knows his sport and his competition at the men&#39;s 5K race at the FINA World Championships.  As he sat back of the leading pack on the first loop, Lurz waited until 18-year-old Andrew Gemmell of Delaware made a break at the 3-kilometer mark.  <\/p>\n<p>Gemmell took the temporary lead as 40 men started their pursuit.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;I felt good and [the pace] wasn&#39;t tough, but perhaps I was in the lead for too long,&quot; Gemmell said. &quot;Around the second-to-last turn buoy, I let up a bit and let Lurz take the lead.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Germany&#39;s most decorated open water swimmer relished the opportunity and took off never to relinquish the lead.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;[Lurz] set an extremely tough pace down the back half,&quot; Gemmell said.  &quot;I was behind him and the Greek swimmer [eventual silver medalist Spyridon Gianniotis], but I wasn&#39;t right on their feet.  I couldn&#39;t close the gap, so I moved over to Fran&#39;s pack.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Down the back straightaway, Fran Crippen of Germantown Academy swam off to the side of Lurz and Gianniotis, leading a group. As Lurz and Gianniotis continued their blistering pace, Crippen took a slightly different line, making the rest of the field make a choice.  Gemmell went with his American teammate as did much of the field.  Lurz never let up, but frequently looked back at his competitors.<\/p>\n<p>As the two split packs converged around the last turn buoy, Lurz had a final 650 meters to hold the field off.  Nipping at his heels, Gianniotis went with him as the entire field swung wide. Very wide.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;They just had their heads down and were battling each other,&quot; said Sid Cassidy, who had a great vantage point.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;We made a big loop and I realized this [mistake] very late,&quot; Lurz said.  &quot;But it was OK and it doesn&#39;t matter in open water.  Even if you swim further, your finish place is what matters.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>Chad Ho, a 19-year-old open water Olympian from South Africa, agreed.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;I was fifth around the last turn,&quot; Ho said. &quot;I was thinking \u2018the top five is good.&#39;  But when the leaders skewed wide, I kept to myself and took a different line [to capture the bronze]&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Down the finish chute, Gianniotis almost caught Lurz, but Lurz had enough kick left to win in 0.3 seconds. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;I&#39;m happy. It was good conditions today, but we have a 10K race tomorrow,&quot; said Lurz.  &quot;I am the oldest swimmer here, so I have to relax, get a massage, eat good like pasta and sleep good before tomorrow.  If I don&#39;t feel drained, then we do it again.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The entire field in tomorrow&#39;s 10K race will have Lurz in its sights, but he has proven himself time and time again.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;Thomas [Lurz] is phenomenal,&quot; said silver medalist Gianniotis.  &quot;He is the best in the world of open water swimming.&quot;<\/p>\n<p><b>OFFICIAL RESULTS<\/b><br \/>\nGOLD: Thomas Lurz, GER: 56:26.9<br \/>\nSILVER: Spyridon Gianniotis, GRE: 56:27.2<br \/>\nBRONZE: Chad Ho, RSA: 56:41.9<br \/>\n4.
