From staff and wire reports
Ukrainian all-around swimmer Yana Klochkova
became the first woman to win both individual medleys in two
consecutive Olympics with her win in the 200. She flirted with Yanyan
Wu's 1997 world record, but finished in 2:11.14. Amanda Beard
won silver in 2:11.70. Zimbabwe's Kirsty Conventry won her second
medal, a bronze, in 2:12.72. American Katie Hoff was seventh in 2:13.97.
