2025 U.S. Nationals: 16-year-old swimmer Luka Mijatovic breaks 200m freestyle record held by Michael Phelps
There's still three years before the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, but 16-year-old swimmer Luka Mijatovic is already turning some heads. Mijatovic broke a record previously held by Michael Phelps at the 2025 U.S. Nationals on Wednesday. Mijatovic posted a 200m freestyle time of 1:45.92. That figure shattered the previous record for the 15-16 age group, which was 1:47.29. If that weren't impressive enough, Mijatovic's time also set the record for the 17-18 age group, which was previously held by Michael Phelps, who posted a 1:45.99 time Any time a swimmer can best Phelps, it's going to get attention. Phelps is one of the greatest swimmers — and one of the most accomplished Olympians — of all-time. He won a total of 28 medals at the games, and holds numerous Olympic records for his excellence. Advertisement Mijatovic is already building an impressive resume. He placed first in both the 500 Y Free and 200 Y Free events at the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) State Championships in May. He's considered one of the top high school swimmers in the United States and ranks first among high school swimmers in California. The 2025 U.S. Swimming Championships began Tuesday, and saw a number of American, including Katie Ledecky, Torri Huske and Bobby Finke turn in some excellent performances. The event — which is being held at the Indiana University Natatorium in Indianapolis — will run through Saturday. Winners of each individual event will qualify for the World Championships, which will be held in Singapore in July and August.

File Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo June 4 (UPI) -- The Snow White live-action remake will arrive on Disney+ June 11, the streamer announced Wednesday. The musical fantasy film reimagines Disney's 1937 animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Rachel Zegler, 23, stars in the titular role, which she described as "the hardest thing" she's ever done. "It's amazingly rewarding when you see it and when you complete it to say that this is a thing that we did, but you basically do three different versions of every scene," Zegler told Jimmy Kimmel in March. Gal Gadot portrays the Evil Queen, whose jealousy of Snow White prompts her to try and kill her stepdaughter. "The classic story comes to life on Disney +," the streamer wrote in an Instagram post announcing the title's arrival.
