41st-fastest performer all- time and faster than the pr for the guy who won 400 IM gold @. London five years ago.
See if he makes Germany’s World Championships team this summer.
For that matter see if the guy who held the record makes the U.S. team for Budapest in this or any other event.
Stay tuned.
