his efforts. He finished fourth in the 50 butterfly, a mere one hundredth away from the medals, and then he was seven hundredths away in his fifth-place finish in the 50 backstroke. Two years later, Andrew concluded the Tokyo Olympics by helping the U.S. men win gold in world-record time in the 400 medley relay, but individually, he was shut out again with two fourth-places finishes and one fifth. In the 50 freestyle final, Andrew ended up just three hundredths off the podium.<\/p>\n<h3>The Week That Was #5: Olympic Champions Kyle Chalmers and Mack Horton Lead New Look Dolphins For Budapest
