Phelps to compete in three events

MESA: Michael Phelps is entered in three events at his first swimming meet since he retired after the 2012 London Olympics.

The 22-time Olympic medallist is set to swim the 50- and 100-metre freestyles and the 100 butterfly at the Arena Grand Prix in Mesa, Arizona, starting next Thursday. Entries were released on Friday.

The 28-year-old Phelps is the top seed in the 100 fly, where he owns the world and American records.

He is seeded eighth in the 100 free and 28th in the 50 free.—AP
