Franklin, an American girl of 16 years old, won the women's 200m backstroke and is now called "Female Phelps".
A blockbuster, the biggest discovery of this competition.

1 hour later, Franklin appeared again to represent the United States in the 4× 100 meter medley relay. Unlike the previous 4× 200m freestyle relay, she was the first. In the medley relay, she swam to the last freestyle, but her movements were still light and her speed was still extremely fast. In the end, she helped the American team achieve the second best result in history of 3 minutes 52.36 seconds and won the championship. This achievement is only 0. 17 second short of the world record set by China in the last World Tour.
The medley relay is the final battle of Franklin's Shanghai World Tour. She won the most medals on the Shanghai World Tour so far with three gold medals, 1 silver medal and 1 bronze medal. Franklin was very excited after swimming the medley relay. "I really can't describe my feelings in words. This is my happiest day. I am here to show my level and ability through the swimming pool. "
Mother's fear of water made her learn to swim very early.
Franklin's achievements were first attributed to her mother. Franklin's mother was afraid of water, so she asked Franklin to practice swimming early, which gave him another survival skill. It may never have occurred to her that her decision changed Franklin's life.
Franklin came to Shanghai as an unknown little girl, but when he left Shanghai, he was already a rising star in Ran Ran, Ran Ran. Her performance surprised everyone and asked, "Can she swim so fast?" Yes, she can.
Franklin's debut in the final of the World Tour was the women's 4× 100 meter freestyle relay. She is the second best swimmer, second only to a Dutch swimmer. As the American team won the second place, people didn't pay much attention to the little girl.
What made Franklin a blockbuster was the women's 4× 200m freestyle relay final. As the first swimmer, she was at least one position ahead of her opponent, which made the champion belong early. What's even more surprising is that she just took part in the 50-meter backstroke final five minutes ago and won a bronze medal.
After losing the bet, the coach shaved off his beard.
In order to encourage Franklin to get good grades, her coach Smeets and Franklin made a small bet. Smeets said, "I have three requirements. As long as she does one of them, even if I lose, I will shave off my beard that has been stored for two years. " Smeets's three requirements are to win a medal in the 50m backstroke, take the lead in the 4x200m freestyle relay with a score of 1 min 55s, and win the gold medal in the 4x200m freestyle relay. Smeets said: "She did all three requirements. I said to Franklin,' Well, you must want me to start over.' "Smeets then indeed as expected shaved off his beard.
There are seven events to participate in the London Olympic Games.
Because of the selection and other reasons, Franklin only reported 50 meters and 200 meters backstroke in this individual event, but did not report 200 meters freestyle and 100 meters backstroke. If she participates in these two events, she will compete with 200m freestyle champion pellegrini and100m backstroke champion Zhao Jing.
To be fair, it is still a little premature to call Franklin a female Phelps, but there is no doubt that she has the potential and talent to become a female Phelps. Phelps commented on this little teammate: "Her performance is unbelievable, and she has the ability to experience big scenes."
Franklin was not impressed by being praised as a female Phelps. "Phelps is so great that I can't compare with such an athlete. I just want to be myself. "
Indeed, after returning to the United States, Franklin will continue to study and swim in middle schools in Colorado. By next year's London Olympic Games, she is expected to participate in the women's 100 m, 200 m freestyle and backstroke in four individual events and three relay events, totaling seven events, and shine brilliantly.
