BUDAPEST, July 29 (Reuters) - - Caeleb Dressel has to sit an algebra exam on Monday. In the meantime the standout star of Budapest's Duna Arena is busy closing in on Michael Phelps's record of seven gold medals at one edition of the world swimming championships.

The 20-year-old American won three golds in a single evening on Saturday, the penultimate day of the championships, and is within reach of Phelps's haul of seven at the 2007 edition in Australia.
