ON THE COVER
Caeleb Dressel lit it up at the World Championships in Budapest. He ripped through two world records (mixed 4×100 meter medley and freestyle relays) and five American records (two in the 50 free, 21.29 and 21.15; two in the 100 free, 47.26 and 47.17; and one in the 50 fly, 22.76)…and just missed Michael Phelps’ world record in the 100 fly by 4-hundredths of a second! He won seven gold medals, tying Phelps for the most golds captured in one World Championship meet. And three of those titles came on the same night—something no swimmer had ever done at either the World Championships or Olympics.
