Lowering his own record eight times. As of now, nobody has swum within a second of it until this past June. Leon Marchand, the 20-year-old pupil of Phelps’ coach Bob Bowman, was on the verge of breaking the record. But the young champ fell short by 44 hundredths seconds.

So, will it be a new world record for Phelps or Leon? That is for the future to decide!
