In the 100 meter butterfly, it looked like Michael Phelps was going to lose to a serbian swimmer. The serbian made a big mistake at the very end - he made his last stroke, and then was drifting what looked to be the last six inches. Phelps, who came from slightly behind, made an extra stroke in the time it took the serbian to drift the six inches - Phelps won by 1/100th of a second, the smallest measurable olympic time! Phelps now has 7 golds in one olympics, tieing mark spitz's 1972 record. He will have an attempt at an eighth tomorrow with a US relay team, which is expected to win.
