Michael Phelps' last individual world record has fallen.
American Carson Foster finished in second in the race on Sunday. He came in just more than four seconds behind Marchand. Japan’s Daiya Seto finished in third.
Phelps won 28 Olympic medals throughout his career, which makes him the most decorated Olympian in the history of the summer games. He won 23 gold medals, too, which is the most ever won. He held five individual world records in five different races when he retired in 2016. He still holds records in the 4x100 and 4x200 freestyle relays.
Marchand, 21, is set to start his junior year at Arizona State this fall under coach Bob Bowman, who is the head coach of the United States team at the world championships. He’s already eying the Olympics next summer in Paris, where he’ll likely be the favorite in the 200 IM.."It's not perfect and I can get better and I have one year to improve."
Marchand’s record was one of three set on Sunday. Australia’s Ariarne Titmus beat Katie Ledecky’s record in the women’s 400-meter freestyle by more than three seconds. Australia also set the 4x100 women’s freestyle world record.
