Ryan Lochte Finishes 25th, Fails to Advance in 200M Freestyle at USA Olympic Trials

Ryan Lochte, a six-time gold medalist for Team USA, failed to advance from the preliminary round of the 200-meter freestyle at the U.S. Olympic swimming trials on Monday, per the Associated Press.

The 36-year-old, who has made four Olympic teams in the past, finished 25th with a time of 1 minute, 49.23 seconds. The top 16 earned a spot in the semifinals.

Lochte still has a chance to travel to Tokyo if he can qualify in the 200 individual medley. He was also entered in the 400 IM and the 100 backstroke, but scratched both events.
