Michael Phelps snagged his third gold medal of the swimming World Championships, crediting his 4×200m freestyle relay teammates with delivering the goods in a world record-setting victory.Phelps, Ricky Berens, David Walters and Ryan Lochte clocked 6min 58.55sec to shave one-hundredth of a second off the previous record of 6:58.56 set by a similar US lineup – lacking only Walters – in winning Olympic gold in Beijing last August.
