Michael Phelps has won his 6th gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics after breaking his own world record in the 200-meter individual medley with the time of 1 minute, 54.23 seconds.

Like every true competitor, he’s already forgotten about this latest victory and he’s focused on the next event.

“It’s never a relief,” Phelps said. “Tomorrow is going to be a tough race. For me to be a player in that race, I have to be closer at the 50. If I’m not, then it will be tough. I was over a body length behind at the 50 in the prelims and came up a bit short, so I have to be there.”
