During the eight-day meet in South Korea, <strong>Michael Andrew<\/strong> pulled off a feat never before achieved in the competition\u2019s previous 17 editions. Flashing his pure speed and all-stroke prowess, Andrew advanced to the finals of each 50-meter stroke.<\/p>\n<p>There were no medals for the American, but the effort was a testament to his versatility and begged the question: Is he capable of \u2013 one day \u2013 putting together a world-class performance in the 200 individual medley? The answer became clear at this week\u2019s United States Olympic Trials in Omaha, where Andrew has been one of the stars on the men\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p>Dominating from the start, Andrew cruised to victory in the 200 I.M., going 1:55.44. While the time was just off his semifinal effort of 1:55.26, it got the job done in convincing fashion. There might have been eight guys in the final at the CHI Health Center, but the 200 medley was an Andrew exhibition. The 22-year-old followed his ultra-aggressive gameplan from the start, as he built a body-length lead in the early stages of the butterfly leg and forced his foes into a game of catchup and a race for second.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew bolted to a 1.33-second advantage after the opening butterfly leg, expanded his margin to 1.39 seconds on the backstroke leg and was 2.68 seconds clear of second-place <strong>Chase Kalisz<\/strong> at the end of the breaststroke. Really, Andrew\u2019s swim was a game of come-and-get-me. The only flaw was his closing freestyle leg, which he covered in 30.09. Not that it mattered \u2013 at least in this outcome.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew\u2019s victory was his second of the week, complementing an earlier triumph in the 100 breaststroke. Whether he adds a third event to his <a href=\"https:\/\/tokyo2020.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tokyo Olympic<\/a> program will start to take shape on Saturday morning, when Andrew steps onto the blocks in the 50 freestyle. The sprint is an event Andrew won at the 2018 Pan Pacific Championships, and where he will clash with two-time defending world champion <strong>Caeleb Dressel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The goal this evening was to edge a little closer to the world record,&#8221; Andrew said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know if it was fatigue or race strategy. I think I was out too fast, and it hurt me on the back end. Once the meet is over, we\u2019ll analyze everything we do. (The last 50), I was really trying to drive the line, but my arms were shot. In this race, my strategy wasn\u2019t really good. I was just thinking about how far they were behind. It got very sloppy at the finish, all things we can be working on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Before Andrew shifts his focus to the 50 freestyle, he had every right to celebrate his medley in a big way. If he was not viewed as an Olympic-medal contender before arriving in Omaha, that status has changed. Heck, he might be the favorite heading into Tokyo, supplanting the host-country&#8217;s <strong>Daiya Seto<\/strong>. At the least, he is a co-favorite.<\/p>\n<p>More than a decade after emerging on the national scene as an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/flashback-michael-andrew-as-a-10-year-old-in-swimming-world-magazine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">age-group phenom<\/a>, Andrew has met the vast \u2013 if not unfair \u2013 expectations placed on his shoulders. Even in his pre-teen years, as crazy as it seems, Andrew was touted as a future Olympian. He is now bound for the Games in a pair of events and will be one of the focal points of the American roster.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m honored to have a second event,&#8221; Andrew said. &#8220;A year ago, I never thought one of them would be the 200 I.M. There is a lot of work left to be done.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kalisz, on the strength of his breaststroke leg, placed second in 1:56.97 to earn his first Olympic berth in that event. He was followed in third place by <strong>Kieran Smith<\/strong> (1:57.23). Four-time Olympian <strong>Ryan Lochte<\/strong>, in what was likely the final race of his storied career, was seventh in 1:59.67. Lochte has been in every Olympic 200 I.M. final since 2004.<\/p>\n<p>At his first Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Kalisz won the silver medal in the 400 I.M. In Tokyo, he will see action in both medley events, as he is regaining the form that made him the world champion in both medley disciplines in 2017. The week has marked a big step forward for Kalisz, who has struggled to produce solid performances the past two years. While he has made some adjustments, Kalisz noted there is room for improvement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It really wasn\u2019t painful at all for me,&#8221; Kalisz said. &#8220;I just didn\u2019t get moving and I didn\u2019t really have any momentum on my back half, which I usually do. I think that comes from my fly and my back. I was just kind of off today on those two strokes, and it made my back half suffer a little bit. I\u2019m thrilled to be on the Olympic team. That\u2019s what we came here to do, first and foremost. I don\u2019t want to take away from that. I\u2019m very happy with that aspect. It\u2019s just as far as the time and how I swim it. I need to talk with (Coach Jack Bauerle) more, but I like to think it stems from that butterfly and my backstroke where I just didn\u2019t really get going and just kind of fought my way through that back part of the race. I certainly think I have a lot more to give than that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Results:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Michael Andrew, 1:55.44<br \/>\n2. Chase Kalisz, 1:56.97<br \/>\n3.
