Fair.

Can anyone name some others who did this?

So much respect.

It’s really not swimming’s championship season until Anders Holm is watching.

Hackett did it with a flying start in the 100, not sure about his time on a flat start though.

Sun Yang did it much better than Zane Grothe, with a little help though 😉
