London 2012 day 3 prelims: Ye puts her foot down in the 200 too

At the London 2012 Olympic prelims today, China’s Shiwen Ye was head and shoulders above the rest of the field in the women’s 200 IM, looking to add that one to her 400 IM Olympic gold from Saturday. Federica Pellegrini led the field (narrowly) in the women’s 200 freestyle, and in the men’s 200 butterfly prelims, Austria’s Dinko Jukic lead in 1:54.79, Michael Phelps comfortably in 5th en route to that elusive 3rd Olympic gold medal.
