At the Summer Olympics in
Beijing,
U.S. swimmer
Michael Phelps held the spotlight, as he pursued a record for gold
medals at the Games. On Day 8, he hit the water in search of his
seventh win, in the 100M Butterfly. Trailing Serbian Milorad Cavic
for most of the race, Phelps (left) caught up with him in the last
few meters, miraculously beating him to the wall by .01 second.
