Such is his dominance in the pool, it will probably be newsworthy only if Joseph Schooling didn't win any gold and break any record.

Butterfly specialist Joseph Schooling once again beat compatriot Quah Zheng Wen in the 200m Butterfly event with a new Games Record of 1:55.73 and didn't even celebrate look at Quah, who was just at the next lane on the left of the frame below, after the win.

In an earlier swim, Schooling not only won the gold and broke the Games Record, he also broke the 32-year record set by, and we quote The Straits Times, 'Singapore swimming great' Ang Peng Siong with a timing of 22.47s. Ang's timing was 22.69s.

Then is Schooling greater than great? Time will tell. From the looks of it, his mind was only on the victims of the Sabah earthquake. Respect.

Quah showed he was no pushover either, setting a Games Record of 2:00.55 at the 200m Backstroke.

Bring out the popcorn, guys. Things are gonna get intense on Wednesday (June 10) when both swimming hunks meet in two events: the 50m Butterfly and the 200m Individual Medley.

In other news, it was a near clean sweep for the Singapore swim team with six golds out of seven events, breaking 5 SEA Games records in the process.
