Brendan Hansen, until a month ago the world record holder in the men’s 200m breast stroke, finished fourth last night at the Olympic Qualifying Meet in Omaha, two places behind what he needed to compete in the Olympics in that event.

Hansen has already earned a ticket to Beijing by qualifying first in the men’s 100m breast stroke.
