Santo Condorelli of Canyons Aquatic Club, who had been the fastest qualifier out of the morning prelims session, led the field at the halfway mark of the men’s 100 fly. But both Giles Smith of Phoenix Swim Club and NBAC’s Phelps put the pressure on during the second 50. At the end, Smith touched 1/100 ahead of Condorelli, 52.57 to 52.58, and Phelps, the World and American Record-holder in the event, finished third with 52.99.
Pavel Sankovich of Club Seminole went 53.25 for fourth, ahead of Masa Kishida of Tucson Ford (53.48), Matt Josa from SwimMAC (54.09), and Michael Andrew of Indie Swimming (55.65). Ryan Lochte, who was swimming in lane 5, was disqualified for flinching at the start.
