American teammate Ryan Lochte beat the 14-time Olympic champion. Lochte overtook Phelps on the final turn of the 200-meter freestyle on Tuesday to win one of the most highly awaited races of the world championships and remind everyone that he's a threat to replace Phelps as the world's top swimmer.
Lochte touched in 1 minute, 44.44 seconds, with Phelps taking the silver in 1:44.79. Biedermann of Germany settled for bronze in 1:44.88.
Maybe all the dope smoking has slowed phelps down
