Meryem Tangoren-Masood, the second Turkish woman ever.

Marcy MacDonald's writes about her attempted double which ended half-way back, after a successful first lap across the big pool. Currently, she has the fastest one-way time which would earn her the Rolex for the year if no one goes any faster. Keep your flippers crossed.

Henry Eckstein had a smooth swim.
