Day 3 Finals Start List
The 3rd and final day of the Singapore stop for the 2024 World Aquatics Swimming World Cup will be kicking off shortly at the OCBC Aquatic Centre. The first two days of the meet featured a ton of records, so more will surely come tonight.
The session will kick off with the fastest heat of the men’s 400 IM, which should be a phenomenal race. Italy’s Alberto Razzetti is the top seed, coming in with a 3:57.01. Sitting not too far off is France’s Leon Marchand, who is the 2nd seed with a 3:58.30. The World Cup Record sits at 3:57.25, which feels very attainable for either Razzetti or Marchand. More interestingly, the World Record is 3:54.81, and given that Marchand is the World Record holder in the LCM 400 IM, it seems quite possible he could make a run at that mark tonight.
The women’s 800 free will see the fastest heat swum tonight towards the beginning of the session. It should be a great race, as Americans Claire Weinstein and Katie Grimes (club teammates back in the US), Australia’s Moesha Johnson, and Japan’s Waka Kobori are in the mix.
Grimes will be back in action shortly after the 800, as she’s also racing the women’s 200 back tonight. She’ll be swimming next to fellow American Regan Smith, who led prelims this morning with a 2:02.95. Smith has been racing well throughout the World Cup, so keep an eye on her as she tries to break the American Record in the event.
American Kate Douglass was dominant in the women’s 100 free this morning in prelims, swimming a 51.59. She clocked the top time in the field by nearly 2 full seconds, setting her up nicely for tonight’s final.
In a loaded men’s 200 free final, Lithuanian Danas Rapsys will be the top seed after going 1:42.35 this morning in prelims. He doesn’t really have any breathing room, however, as the 8th seed in the event, Australia’s Edward Sommerville, was 1:43.88 this morning. The field also features superstar swimmers such as Leon Marchand (France), Duncan Scott (Great Britain), and Kieran Smith (USA).
RESULTS:
Leon Marchand earned the win in the men’s 400 IM to open the session tonight. The French phenom got out to an early lead over Italy’s Alberto Razzetti, hitting the 300m turn exactly 4 seconds ahead of Razzetti. Razzetti would close the gap on Marchand on the final 100m of the race, ending up touching 2nd by just over 2 seconds. For Marchand, the swim comes in just off his personal best of 3:58.30.
The Americans ended up with 3 swimmers in the top 8 in this timed finals event. They were led by Trenton Julian, who came in 3rd with a 4:04.46. Luke Ellis, whose 18th birthday is today, came in 6th with a 4:09.37, while 16-year-old Gabriel Manteufel finished 7th in 4:13.84.
RESULTS:
American Katie Grimes established an early lead in the women’s 800 free tonight and held on through the finish. Grimes earned the gold by 4 seconds over Australia’s Moesha Johnson. For Grimes, her time of 8:14.36 comes in just off her career best of 8:12.20, which she swam at the Indianapolis stop of the World Cup back in November of 2022. She was out under her best time pace, splitting 4:05.39 on the opening 400m.
Johnson was locked between Grimes and American Claire Weinstein throughout the bulk of the race. Weinstein was leading Johnson early, however, Johnson pulled ahead of her at the 275m mark and would remain ahead through the end. Weinstein closed the gap, which had grown to 4 seconds, on the final 150m of the race, ending up touching in 8:18.41, just 0.17 seconds behind Johnson.
RESULTS:
Sweden’s Louise Hansson picked up another win in the women’s 100 fly tonight, swimming a 55.46. It was a strong swim for Hansson, coming in less than a second off Sarah Sjostrom’s Swedish and European Record of 54.61, which has stood for 10 years. On the opening 50m tonight, Hansson split 25.92, then came home in 29.44.
Japan’s Mizuki Hirai was out right behind Hansson, swimming a 25.96 on the opening 50m. She held strong with Hansson through the 3rd 25, touching at the 75m turn in 40.57, just 0.03 seconds behind Hansson. At the end, Harai was a tick slower than Hansson on the final lap of the pool, and ended up finishing 2nd in 55.81.
Finland’s Laura Lahtinen was also under 56 seconds tonight, touching 3rd in 55.96.
RESULTS:
Switzerland’s Noe Ponti earned gold in the men’s 50 fly once again, finishing in 21.64. He was just off his World Record of 21.50, which he swam this morning in prelims. Ponti has been dominant in the 50 fly throughout this World Cup series.
Netherlands’ Nyls Korstanje was right behind Ponti tonight, earning the silver medal with a 21.74. His performance tonight marks a new Dutch Record in the event, taking down the previous record of 21.96, which Korstanje set back at the Shanghai stop of the World Cup two weeks ago.
Bronze tonight went to Singapore’s Teong Tzen Wei, who swam a 22.11. He holds the Singaporean Record in the event with the 21.98 he swam in prelims this morning.
RESULTS:
American Regan Smith got the job done tonight, winning gold in the women’s 200 back and setting a new World Record in the process. Smith ripped a 1:58.83, taking down the World Record mark of 1:58.94, which Australia’s Kaylee McKeown established back in 2020. With the performance, Smith now holds the World Record in both the 100 and 200 backstroke, as she set the WR in the 100 back again yesterday with a 54.27.
Tonight, Smith was out fast, splitting 58.18 on the opening 100m, but the strength of her race came in the back half. Smith mustered a 30.29 on the 3rd 50 and came home in 30.36 on the final 50, for a 1:00.65 on the back half. Her World Record swim tonight comes after she set the American Record in the event last week with a 1:59.60.
Anastasiya Shkurdai finished 2nd in the race tonight, swimming a 2:01.63. Australia’s Iona Anderson was out ahead of Shkurdai on the front half of the race, splitting 59.16 on the opening 100m to Shkurdai’s 59.81. Shkurdai then took over the lead on the 3rd 50 and managed to inch a little further ahead on the final 50, finishing 0.35 seconds ahead of Anderson in the end.
Following her victory in the 800 free, American Katie Grimes was back in action here, taking 4th with a 2:02.25. That performance marks a new career best in the event for Grimes.
RESULTS:
South Africa’s Pieter Coetze won a tight race in the men’s 100 back tonight, swimming a 49.36. Coetze was out in 24.04 on the opening 50m, marking the fastest split in the field. He then held on through the back half, touching 1st by 0.32 seconds.
Poland’s Kacper Stokowski was out right behind Coetze, splitting 24.06 on the 1st 50. Stokowski then faded to 3rd on the back half of the race, finishing in 49.87.
Italy’s Thomas Ceccon, the World Record holder in the LCM 100 back, took silver tonight with a 49.68. He was out in 24.19, then pulled ahead of Stokowski on the back half.
RESULTS:
China’s Tang Qianting won the women’s 50 breast decisively tonight, swimming a 28.87. Her performance tonight was just off her own Asian Record of 28.76, which she swam at the Shanghai stop of the World Cup about 2 weeks ago.
Italy’s Benedetta Pilato came in 2nd with a 29.42, while Alina Zmushka was 3rd in 29.79.
Sophie Hansson, the sister of 100 fly champion Louise Hansson, was also under 30 seconds tonight, swimming a 29.98 for 4th.
RESULTS:
Netherlands’ Caspar Corbeau won the men’s 200 breaststroke tonight with a 2:02.33, beating out Australia’s Joshua Yong by half a second. Corbeau was out to an early lead, swimming a 58.96 on the opening 100m, which put him nearly a second ahead of Yong. He held his lead through the 3rd 50, then Yong closed the gap slightly on the final 50, though it wasn’t enough.
With the performance, Corbeau was less than a second off the Dutch Record of 2:01.43, which is held by Arno Kamminga.
Ilya Shymanovich was firmly in 3rd place tonight, swimming a 2:03.90. He was out a little faster than Yong, splitting a 59.68 on the opening 100m.
China’s Qin Haiyang was disqaulified.
RESULTS:
American Kate Douglass was exceptional tonight in the women’s 100 free, winning the race by nearly a second. She was out very fast tonight, splitting 24.39 on the opening 50m, then came home in 26.43. Her final time of 50.82 marks a new American Record in the event.
Hong Kong’s Siobhan Haughey took silver tonight with a 51.56. She was 24.74 on the first 50m of the race, then came home in 26.82. Haughey holds the Asian Record in the event with a 50.79, a time which she swam in December of 2021.
The podium was rounded out by Poland’s Katarzyna Wasick, who swam a 52.04. The 32-year-old is the Polish Record holder in the event with her career best of 51.44, which she swam in 2021.
Showing off her freestyle versatility, American Claire Weinstein was racing in this 100 free final after taking 3rd in the 800 free at the beginning of the session. Weinstein finished 6th with a 54.02.
RESULTS:
Great Britain’s Duncan Scott put on a show in the men’s 200 free final tonight, ripping a British Record of 1:39.83. He won the race by over a second, which is even more impressive considering this field. Scott was out in 48.83 on the opening 100m, flipping as the only swimmer in the field under 49 seconds. He held on well, swimming a 51.00 on the 2nd 100.
France’s Leon Marchand came in 2nd tonight, swimming a 1:40.91. He was great on the final 50 of the race, splitting a field-leading 25.38, however, Scott had built way too much of a lead by that point.
China’s Pan Zhanle, the World Record holder in the LCM 100 free, earned the bronze medal tonight with a 1:41.59. He showed off his speed early, splitting 23.52 on the opening 50m, which was the fastest 1st 50 split in the field. He was 49.08 at the 100 turn, which was 2nd only to Scott. Pan was still ahead of Marchand at the 150m turn, however, Marchand ran him down on the final 50.
RESULTS:
China’s Yu Yiting sent this stop of the World Cup off with a bang, winning the women’s 200 IM in 2:03.99. The performance marks a new Chinese Record in the event, downing her own previous mark of 2:04.48, which had stood since 2021. Yu was also right off the Asian Record of 2:03.93, which is held by Japan’s Yui Ohashi from 2020.
Yu was out fast, splitting 25.99 on the fly 50, then tacked on a 31.21 backstroke split to remain in the lead by over 1 second at the 100m turn. She then expanded her lead over the field with a 36.32 on the breaststroke 50, then she came home in 30.47.
Canada’s Mary-Sophie Harvey earned the silver medal with a 2:04.82. Harvey was excellent on the final 50 of the race, splitting 29.40 on the freestyle leg of the race.
American Beata Nelson rounded out the podium, clocking a 2:05.00.

Belt it Shania!

One thing I will never ever truly understand is how the governing bodies of swimming don’t do every single thing in their power to get some sort of shitty live stream for these events (and all events).
Why in this day and age is there not a landing page with an easy way for me to use Apple Pay or google pay to purchase either a session or the entire event? Make it easy on us to give you our money!
