While Schooling commented in the article that he would \u201clike to be a bit faster,\u201d he also acknowledged he was in hard training and that this race was a chance to dust off the cobwebs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the article, Schooling also hinted that he may be dropping the 200 butterfly from his event schedule. The 23-year old explained the decision partly as an evolution of his career, saying \u201cI am comfortable focusing on the shorter races. Sometimes you just have to transition, that is how the career goes. <\/span><b>Michael (Phelps)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> stopped the 400m IM (individual medley) when he got older, and sometimes it&#8217;s just what you need to do.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schooling is the national record holder in the event for Singapore with a 1:55.73 from the 2015 Southeast Asia Games, and was a bronze medalist in the event at the 2014 Asian Games. In fact, the event was what qualified him for his first Olympic Games in 2012, although he has in recent years elected to skip the event at international competition. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was slated to compete in the event at the 2016 Olympics and last summer\u2019s World Championships but ultimately decided to bypass the event both times. And despite breaking the NCAA and US Open record in the 200 yard butterfly at NCAA\u2019s his sophomore year, the former Texas swimmer has failed to make top-16 in the event at the National Championships the last two seasons competing for the Longhorns. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Strait Times <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">does note that even without the 200 fly Schooling will be competing in five to six events during the upcoming Asian Games, including the 50 and 100 fly, the 100 free, the 4&#215;100 free and 4&#215;100 medley relays, and potentially the 200 free. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Strait Times<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> contributed to the
