* - Franklin, who earned a $10,000 world record bonus for her 2:00.03 200m backstroke victory in Berlin, will not accept any of the money to keep open her option of racing for a college under American 'amateur' NCAA rules that prevent athletes from earning money from their sports achievements - in the way that FINA and national federations operated until the mid to late 1980s, when reality kicked in.
