I think the point is that they're all training for years and doing so with insane dedication. In that situation it is largely a question of genetics.
There are plenty of swimmers who put in 15 years of intense effort under world-class coaches, but still couldn't even come close to beating a less experienced guy with a 6'7" wingspan, size 14 feet, huge hands, short legs, and muscles that produce 50% less lactic acid than the normal human.
