Bobby Finke is the reigning Olympic Champion in the Men's 800 and 1500 Freestyles. He shocked the world (and himself) as he flew by his competition in the final 50 of both races.
A home grown Florida boy turned Florida Gator, Bobby grew up in a swimming family training under Fred Lewis at Saint Petersburg Aquatics (SPA).
