Olympics: Caeleb Dressel Scares Olympic Record as 50 Free Top Seed<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the 100 freestyle<\/a>, it was Caeleb Dressel<\/strong> and Kyle Chalmers<\/strong> throwing down. In the 100 butterfly, the showdown looms between<\/a> Dressel and Kristof Milak.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the American superstar\u2019s third and final individual event of these Tokyo Olympics, there\u2019s no obvious foil for Dressel to joust with. Though given the nature of the splash and dash, that doesn\u2019t mean the coronation is being planned just yet.<\/p>\n

Dressel looked comfortably ahead of the field in the prelims Friday night, tallying the fastest time by a full three-tenths in 21.32. He put a scare into the Olympic record, a 21.30 from Cesar Cielo<\/strong> that has held since 2008<\/a>. He was easily ahead of the field without being pushed.<\/p>\n

The more pressing matter for Dressel up ahead is Saturday morning\u2019s daunting triple \u2013 the final of the men\u2019s 100 fly, semis of the 50 free, a medal ceremony and then the mixed medley relay final, all of which he\u2019s expected to take part in.<\/p>\n

\u201cI stay on routine as much as I can,\u201d Dressel said. \u201cI have done this before. It\u2019s not easy. Every time is a little different. For the most part, I know somewhat what to expect emotionally, physically. I know how to do it. I\u2019ve been fortunate enough to have it in pretty much the past four international meets I\u2019ve swum. I know I\u2019ll be good. It\u2019ll be tough but I\u2019m looking forward to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Closest to Dressel in the heats were a trio of veterans separated by .01 each. Florent Manaudou<\/strong> of France was second in 21.66, followed by Greece\u2019s Kristian Gkolomeev<\/strong> and Brazil\u2019s Bruno Fratus.<\/strong> Speaking of veterans, Brent Hayden<\/strong> is in the final, qualifying eighth with a time of 21.85.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt felt amazing and it was really special having my teammate Josh Liendo<\/strong> on my outside,\u201d Hayden said. \u201c\u2026 But also, having Bruno Fratus in Lane 4, he was one of the first guys that encouraged me to go on with this comeback, so I owe him a big part of this journey. I had fun and I\u2019m satisfied with the time, but I\u2019m going to go back home and think about how I can make it faster tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n

A surprise inclusion in the final is Ukraine\u2019s Vladyslav Bukhov,<\/strong> who blasted a 21.73 from outside the circle-seeded heats to get into fifth. Kliment Kolesnikov<\/strong> and Vlad Morozov<\/strong> give the Russians two swimmers. Michael Andrew<\/strong> was fifth in the third-to-last heat but his time of 21.89 ended up getting him into the final comfortably in 21.89.<\/p>\n

No big names missed the final. Cameron McEvoy<\/strong> was 29th, though he wasn\u2019t expected to contend as he has in the past. Ditto (now Italian) Santo Condorelli<\/strong> in 19th.<\/p>\n
