Kosuke Kitajima,

the Japanese guy who was champion for both 100 and 200m breaststroke olympic (Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008)

4 gold medals in breaststroke

He broke the world record in 2008 Olympic, but then, the former world record holder who comes from Australia, Brenton Rickard broke his record for 100m breaststroke with a time of 58.58s in Rome Italy, which i believe should be the world tournament
