Somebody should add that she just broke (her own) 100m backstroke world record.

Above is way out of date, as would be obvious if the contributor had signed off Sitush (talk) 06:41, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

pronounciation?

Does anybody know for sure how she pronounces her last name? Perhaps a recording of her saying it? The olympics announcers seem to be all over the place.Brainmouse (talk) 02:55, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

In the UK (& Ireland) there is only one way to pronounce it, which is "cog-lin", where the "g" is hard & borders on a "k". Sorry, I know not how to do this in Wiki phonetics Sitush (talk) 05:01, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Then what does "qualify" mean?

"Although she qualified for only one event, Coughlin signed up for the 100 freestyle and 100 backstroke."

How do you "sign up" for events for which you haven't qualified? GeneCallahan (talk) 05:23, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
