Extractions: A majestic Ian Thorpe stood high on the Olympic podium and saluted the crowd after winning the 400m freestyle and the first gold medal for Australia at the Games. Moments later the 17-year-old prodigy found his reserves of energy to swim one of the finest final legs seen in Olympic competition to help his country defeat the Americans in the 4x100m freestyle relay. It was a remarkable achievement on the first day of the pool events as the 17,500 crowd who came to the Homebush Bay indoor centre witnessed a legend in the making. The local boy from Sydney delivered at the right time and at the perfect occasion as he destroyed all who came before him in the mens' 400m freestyle and broke the world record by nearly a second, in a time of 3 minutes 40.59 seconds. Kitted in an all-in-one wetsuit, the 17-year-old stood out from the crowd and never looked like losing the three length lead he established in the opening 25 metres. Thorpe moved almost effortlessly in the pool as the swimmers behind him, led by Massimiliano Rosolino of Italy and Klete Keller of America, tried in vain to make up the difference.

Summer Olympics 2000 Thorpe On 'standby' For Final Relay SYDNEY, Australia ian thorpe, whose three golds have electrified the host nation,has an upper respiratory infection, an Australian swimming spokesman said http://espn.go.com/oly/summer00/news/2000/0920/762605.html
Extractions: SYDNEY, Australia Ian Thorpe, whose three golds have electrified the host nation, has an upper respiratory infection, an Australian swimming spokesman said Thursday. "He's got a bit of a sniffle," Ian Hanson said. "He was in training this morning. It's nothing he wants to use as an excuse." Thorpe, 17, is not being kept away from the rest of his teammates, Hanson said. Thorpe has been bothered by the infection since Wednesday, when the swimmer appeared in good health at a news conference, Hanson said. Thorpe had the night off and joined the rest of his team to watch the finals. He won golds in the 400-meter freestyle and the 400 and 800 freestyle relays, along with a silver in the 200 freestyle. He may be chosen to swim on Australia's 400 medley relay team. Preliminaries are Friday, followed by the final Saturday. "Technically, I'm not finished swimming," Thorpe said Wednesday. "I'm on standby. There's a possibility I'll be on the medley relay, so I'm not finished at the pool yet. I'm trying to stay in contact with the water."
TIMEasia.com | Ian Thorpe | 9/11/2000 combined with the longest stroke in swimming, makes thorpedo from scratch, you'dbuild ian thorpe. He is big hope in the main arena, thorpe spearheads its http://www.cnn.com/ASIANOW/time/magazine/2000/0911/olys.thorpe.html
Extractions: Is Ian Thorpe the most technically proficient swimmer of all time? Probably not. Is he the most physically powerful freestyler there has ever been? No again. Surprisingly, he is unimpressive in the gym and hopeless at ball sports. But at 193 cm and 90 kg, with natural buoyancy and a basketballer's feet and hands, he can move water like the moon. His cartoon elasticity, combined with the longest stroke in swimming, makes "Thorpedo" everything his nickname suggests: sleek, smooth, strangely beautiful and, to the competition, lethal. "If you were going to do a Frankenstein," says Brian Sutton, coach of nine Australian Olympians, "if you were going to put a swimmer together from scratch, you'd build Ian Thorpe." He is just 17 years old and has swum the 200 m and 400 m faster than anyone else in history. He fascinates rivals, coaches, sports scientists and fans. In two years, he has become Australia's most admired athlete, ahead of track star Cathy Freeman. While the Aboriginal Freeman is the host nation's only big hope in the main arena, Thorpe spearheads its mightiest swim team in decades. In an island nation, you would expect water sports to be important. They are. Of all the Olympic events, the home fans are savoring a duel in the pool with the Yanks, who don't seem to have an answer for the teenage talisman.

Extractions: Greatness in sportin any field, for that matteris seldom a consequence of defining traits or signature moves. But in our admiration for sporting heroes, we tend to seize on any quirk that seems to explain their mastery. We clutch at Ali's dancing feet, Nicklaus' pre-swing tilt of the head and Borg's icy temperament, when really they're tiny pieces in an impossibly complex puzzle. Australian Ian Thorpe is 17 years old and has swum freestyle over 200 m and 400 m faster than anyone else in history. He fascinates rivals, coaches, sports scientists and fans. Amid baseless accusations of drug use and the simplistic focus on his colossal feet, we've tended to overlook his most important quality: completeness. Is he the most technically proficient swimmer of all time? Probably not. That would be one of the fine Americans of the 1970s, Bruce Furniss or Brian Goodell, or their younger compatriot Ambrose "Rowdy" Gaines, or perhaps an Australian stylist like Murray Rose or Stephen Holland. But Thorpe is in the top 10and, in his own generation, peerless. Cartoon-elastic and equipped with the longest stroke in swimming, "Thorpedo" is what his nickname suggests: sleek, beautiful and explosively powerful.
