He's done it: seven Golds. No world record but that will come tomorrow...

He's done it! By 0.01sec over Milorad Cavic (SRB) Michael Phelps has seven gold medals. Victory was his in 50.58 in the 100m butterfly. Mark Spitz has company. But the race gave Phelps access to the medley relay final. The game is up. Bob Bowman's sweet symphony is all but complete.

More later.
