Men’s 100 Backstroke
Ryan Murphy had the lead at the 50 meter mark turning in a time of 26.24, David Plummer and Andrew teDuits both caught Murphy in what was an incredible finish, with only six one-hundredths of a second separating the three men. teDuits took the event in a time of 54.43, Plummer finished second in a time of 54.45 with Murphy finishing in third posting a time of 54.49.

You should interview Drew Teduits, and ask how he got so fast, or what he attributes to his rapid ascension from not even making NCAA’s to just throwing down a top 25 time in the world!
Too short interview!
And yes, he has a serious chance to travel to Barcelona next summer!
Sorry! It was a long day and a very late night getting the videos up… SwimSwam will be producing a 5 minute feature video on Murphy from footage captured over three Grand Prix competitions. (Thanks for the feedback. We’re working on a lot of longer video features.)
