Women's 50m Freestyle Finals

Gold: Kromowidjojo (NED) olympic record
Silver: Herasimenia (BLR)
Bronze: Marleen Veldhuis (NED)

I always like to say 50m were the hardest to win, because it's too short, too fast and the win is always by hundredths of a second - unsatisfying for audience. But Kromowidjojo proved that wrong today as she wins by about 0.2 second, a hand's length. An event later, she went onto the podium, and then immediately after parading with her medals for the press, she walked out again for the women's 4x100 medley relay. :))
