Clary’s frantic finish means he will join Phelps in London."Today was the best my stroke has felt throughout the whole meet,” Phelps said. "I’m pleased, but I think I need to go faster if I want to win that at the Olympics.”The battle for medals between Phelps and Lochte is set to be one of the most anticipated in the pool. They will go head to head in the 200m and 400m individual medley and the 200m freestyle.Schmitt , who trains with the same team as Phelps in North Baltimore, will also be on the plane to London after she swam the fastest times in the world since synthetic suits were banned at the end of 2009, meaning she will be one of the favourites this summer.
