Phelps Wins Gold - Ties Spitz's Record

In dramatic fashion, Michael Phelps won the 100m Men's Butterfly last night by 1/100th of a second over Serbia's Milorad Cavic who led for most of the race. Phelps was in second until he made a "superman" like lunge at the end to touch the wall first.

Phelps now ties Mark Spitz's long standing record of winning seven gold medals in an single games. Phelps will try to break the record by racing in the medley relay later tonight.
