2008 Olympic 10K swimmer Csaba Gercsak of Hungary, currently training in Florida, will take on his fellow world-class marathon swimmers from America, Mexico, Canada, Egypt, South Africa and Azerbaijan at the USA Swimming National Open Water Swimming Championships on June 4th in what looks like will be a fantastic tune-up for the 2010 World Open Water Swimming Championships.

Gercsak will join Fran Crippen and Andrew Gemmell as the pre-race favorites in a race that will come down to a sprint finish.
