    FRIENDLY RIVALS

    There appear to be no hard feelings between Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte after the opening night at the pool in London. Phelps was routed by his American rival in the 400-meter individual medley, losing to Lochte by more than 4 seconds Saturday. Lochte won the gold, and Phelps came in fourth.

    "Congrats to (at)RyanLochte," Phelps tweeted afterward. "Way to keep that title in the country where it belongs!!"

    "Thanks," Lochte replied: "I couldn't do it without you."
