Superstar swimmer Ryan Lochte took a bold step in dying his hair silver before the Summer Games.

“I think I used too much energy in the front half and that kind of hurt me towards the end”.
Lochte has a few more events on his plate at the Olympics.
To get to Thursday’s final in the 200-meter individual medley, Phelps and Lochte first must survive the semifinals Wednesday, which should present no more than a speed bump.
“Leaving everything in the pool one last time is what I’m going to do, and if that’s good enough to win, we’ll see”.
Murphy looked stoic after winning his second gold medal with a victory in the 200-meter backstroke.
Phelps singled out Chase Kalisz, who took the silver medal in the 400m individual medley on Saturday, as one to watch at the Tokyo 2020 Games.
Could their be another swimmer to fill the gap of Lochte’s famously flamboyant style, including even green hair?
But gold medals are not Phelps’ only priority as he leads one of America’s youngest ever Olympic swimming teams in Rio. A photo circulated of Phelps with a bong, followed by a string of broken relationships. Phelps has said he emerged with a new perspective about what really mattered after his six-week stay. “Phelps for the gold”. But now that Ryan’s given us a preview of what he would look like with full-blown mermaid-hued hair, Channing Tatum better hope he doesn’t steal his Splash remake away from him.

“Just watching him swim, and knowing that he’s so happy doing the sport that he loves, you know, I couldn’t be any prouder”, she said.
