According to historians, Phelps has equalled a record that has stood for more than 2,000 years. Leonidas of Rhodes won 12 individual titles (Phelps' 21 include relays) but the American has the chance to surpass that mark on Thursday.

Got to say i am a big fan of the sevens, both sexes. Looks like a sport that can become mainstream like 20/20 cricket and be a big hit.

This is fecking sh1te... I've had BBC4 on waiting for something interesting instead of lady acrobats and the fecking 7s were on on the other side.
