the laws of Olympic swimming which read “America turns up at the Olympics, America wins the men’s 4 x 100 freestyle relay “. Australia’s victory on home soil in 2000 had broken US invincibility in the event and they added the world title in 2001 with Russia following as World Champions 2 years later. In that 2003 World Championships final South Africa had trailed in last but a year later they were the fastest qualifiers from the heat. Even with that qualifying performance the talk was still of the more favoured nations of the USA, Australia, the Netherlands and Russia, with each country having at least one bona fide superstar in their ranks. The South Africans sent out <a href="/athletes/93731">Roland Schoeman</a>, their fastest swimmer, on the opening leg and he opened up a lead that never looked like being closed down. <a href="/athletes/50013">Ryk Neethling</a> anchored the team to a new world record as they finished over a second ahead of a fast finishing Netherlands team with the USA having to settle for third place.</p> </div><table class="table table-striped"><thead><tr><th>Pos</th><th>Swimmer</th><th>NOC</th><th>R1</th><th>Final</th><th></th><th></th><th></th></tr></thead><tr class="" style=""><td>1</td><td>South Africa</td><td><a href="/countries/RSA"><img style="padding-right: 2px;
