USA WON GOLD 4X100 Relay Jason Lezak incredible Beijing Olympic 2008
There was no way for Jason Lezak to know how far behind he was, and no reason to try to figure it out. With 350 meters gone and 50 to go in the 4 x 100 freestyle relay, Lezak made his turn, and kept it simple.

“I’m not going to lie,” Lezak said. “When I flipped at the wall I thought, ‘There’s no way.’ Then in the next instant, I was like ‘No, this is the Olympics. I’m not giving up.’ I got a super charge and just took it from there.”

It was Monday morning in the so-called Water Cube, and things had not gone particularly well for the U.S. Katie Hoff, the 19-year-old from the same North Baltimore pool that Michael Phelps came of age in, had lost a big lead in the 400-meter freestyle, and wound up with silver. Brendan Hansen, world record-holder in the 100 breast, lost both his record and a medal, coming in fourth.

There was a time that the 4 x 100 freestyle relay was as much of a lock for the U.S. as a basketball gold. The first seven times it was contested, the Americans won it. So imagine how much of a jolt it was when the U.S. was stunned by Australia in Sydney in 2000, and fell to the bronze in Athens.

“I think I wanted it more than anybody, not just for myself, but to show that we are the nation to be beat in that relay,” he said.

The only trouble was that France was not cooperating. The indefatigable Phelps swam an American-record 47.51 in the first leg, even as Australia’s Eamon Sullivan was swimming a world record (47.24). Garrett Weber-Gale, in the second leg, got the lead back with a superb swim before Cullen Jones, who learned to swim at a YMCA pool in Newark, dove in.

BEIJING 2008: MICHAEL PHELPS: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! THE ASTONISHING UNTHINKABLE EIGHT GOLD MEDALS TOPPING MARK SPITZ’S 1972 PERFORMANCE! ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆


MICHAEL Phelps today swept to an astonishing eighth gold medal at the Beijing Games with victory for the US in the 4×100m medley relay.

He gives the U.S. the lead in the 4 x 100 medley relay in the butterfly, then Lezak completes a world-record performance, as Phelps earns his record eighth gold medal, topping Mark Spitz’s 1972 performance.

The American cemented his place as the greatest swimmer — and perhaps sportsman — in history by completing a perfect eight victories from eight swims, seven of them in world records.

The Americans held off a determined Australian team to win in a world record of 3.29.34, beating the previous mark of 3.30.68.

The Australians also broke the old world record in 3. 30.04 secs with Japan taking bronze in 3.30.18.

The Americans took an early lead courtesy of Olympic 100m backstroke champion Aaron Peirsol and turned almost a second in front of the Russians and the Japanese with Australia fourth.

Brendan Hanson bolstered that edge although Australia’s Brenton Rickard swam brilliantly to keep Australia in touch.

Australia’s Andrew Lauterstein had a massive challenge to keep up with Phelps on the butterfly leg but he fought on magnificently to give Eamon Sullivan an outside shot at hauling in America’s Jason Lezak on the freestyle leg.

The 100m silver medallist responded with a lightning quick 46.65 but it was not enough to catch Lezak.

Sullivan said the Australians had thrown everything they had at their arch rivals.

“It’s something we have been working towards for four or five years now,” he said.

“The (men of the Australian team) have really lifted.”

Lauterstein said the silver medal performance was a sign of better things to come for the Aussies.
“We said we were going to give these guys a shake and we certainly did,” he said.

“There are good things to come for us four. We are four young guys, they have Jason Lezak and Aaron Peirsolwho are a bit older.”

The US victory sealed a remarkable 25th world record at Beijing’s Water Cube.
