He's an amazing swimmer and everyone should know that. I know he was caught with a bong but whatever I respect him anyway.
He is definitely the best of the best. Go Phelps!
Michael Phelps is an amazing swimmer. He is obviously one of the best swimmers in the world. He inspired me for swimming. I've been swimming since I was about 1 or 2 years old.
I think he is an amazing swimmer because he spends all his time swimming. I am a swimmer and I really want to grow up and be exactly like him and how he swims.
A complete d1ck but the best Olympian ever and the most decorated. I had the privilege to race him at Omaha in 2012 and from personal experience he will always be one of the greatest swimmers and athletes ever.
Mark Andrew Spitz is an American former competitive swimmer, nine-time Olympic champion, and former world record-holder in seven events. He was the first to get seven medals in one olympics. Ever. In swimming that is and has one stuff beyond imagination!
He set outrages goals and always defeated them.
Should be lower. No special treatment because of skin color.
I visited his beautiful home in the hills in Costa Rica while still under construction last year. Beautiful place and location Aaron! Keep up the good work with keeping the oceans and the environment clean...
Had second most medals in 08 only to Phelps.
A very good distance freestyler. She gets every single person in the pool cheering for her.
She is amazing!
She is one of the youngest swimmers! But she showed me an lesson. It doesn't matter!
Come on people! She won 18 medals! All gold! Almost as much as Michael Phelps!
She wasn't even 18 when she got her first of many world records.
Great personality, an excellent person to represent the United States, excellent attitude towards her sport and of life.
Missy Franklin should be up in the top 10. She made it in swimming at age 16 and has only gotten better. My hero and role model
She got 4 gold and one bronze in her first olympics! Come on people!
Two world records! How much did phelps get in Sydney? A big donut hole.
Give her at least number 9
The heck? Why is Missy so low?
One of the greatest swimmers in history and a dedicated swimmer
I love Ryan Lochte because he is 28 years old and he is execellent.
He is amazing at breast stroke.
She is a great swimmer. She has competed in 2 Olympic Games and she won the medals in both of them. Rebecca is the best breaststroker in the United States, she is not as good as Michael phelps but she deserves to be on the top ten list.
She should be on the top ten list. She inspires me in everything she does, and I couldn't have asked for a better idol.
Very good at everything and most decorated female swimmer!
My swim team coach is married to her. And I love her!
She got two gold in her first Olympics.
So fast! In my opinion, she is one of the fastest swimmer!
One of the top freestylers! She is so cool!
