SAN ANTONIO – Michael Phelps already has far more medals than any Olympic athlete.
There is no longer any reason to doubt he’ll have another massive haul in Rio.
Not after an astounding weekend in sweltering San Antonio, where Phelps turned in a performance at the US national championships that re-established his place as the world’s dominant swimmer.
He churned through the water, his body as ripped and fit as ever, producing times that haven’t been seen since the days of the high-tech bodysuits. When rival swimmer Chad le Clos trash-talked from afar, it only made Phelps go faster.
