Sutton's Medal Hopes Are Quashed

Mission Viejo Nadador Chloe Sutton of Ladera Ranch missed out on a chance for a 2012 Olympic medal when she failed to qualify for the finals of the 400-meter freestyle event Sunday.

She finished 10th; her time was 4:07:7.

Sutton competed in the 10k marathon swim in the 2008 Olympics, which was held at the Shunyi Olympic Rowing-Canoeing Park in Beijing. She was the only American to qualify for the race, which lasted over two hours.

After swimming this weekend, Sutton has become the first swimmer ever to compete in both open water and a swimming pool in the Olympics.
