    For the last quarter of a century, the American men have dominated the backstroke events.

    Jeff Rouse
    Aaron Peirsol
    Tyler Clary
    Ryan Lochte
    Ryan Murphy
    Matt Grevers
    David Plummer

    the list just keep going.

    But not any longer thanks to the 1-2 punch from Russia’s Evgeny Rylov and Kliment Kolesnikov.

    Ryan Murphy still got on the podium, though, and swam a great race.
