He has the 50m freestyle starting tomorrow.

He won bronze in the 200IM in 2004. He no longer competes in this event because after the last olympics he suffered a serious knee injury. He considered quitting after that but decided to give the sprints a shot - the 50m freestyle and the 100m freestyle. The 50m is his stronger event so hopefully he makes it to the final

Semis start tomorrow at 10.00am Beijing time.  Look like I'll have to be up early (3.00am UK).

I think if he repeat that time he'll be in the final.
