Six-time Olympic gold medallist Ryan Lochte, back from a 14-month suspension, won the 200m individual medley on Sunday at the US swimming championships in Palo Alto, California.
Lochte, 35, clocked 1min 57.76 to win a 27th national title and stamp himself a contender to make a fifth Olympic team next year.
"This was a lot easier 10 years ago," said Lochte, who finished 1.07sec in front of silver medallist Shalne Casas.
"I've got a lot of ways to go for 2020."
