Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown, as both Kaylee McKeown and Qin Haiyang have a plethora of competition who will be eager to usurp the World Cup Series throne.
La Serie di Coppa del Mondo 2024 è pronta per partire con la sua prima tappa a Shanghai, da domani 18 e fino a domenica 20 ottobre.
The stars are coming out in full force for the 2024 World Cup series, with six reigning Olympic champions committing to all three legs.
Swim fans in Shanghai, China snapped up tickets to October’s World Cup stop there in just a few minutes, with resellers listing them at huge markups.
8-time Olympic medalist Regan Smith is among nine American swimmers who are scheduled to race at the 2024 World Cup Series opener in Shanghai.
October 17th, 2024
DAY 1 HEATS START LIST
The first stop of the 2024 World Aquatics Swimming World Cup kicks off tomorrow, Friday, October 18th in Shanghai, China but tonight for U.S-based fans.
Reverting back to short course meters, the 3-stop competition series serves as a post-Paris stepping stone ahead of December’s Short Course World Championships in Budapest.
Subsequent World Cup stops include Incheon, South Korea (Oct. 24-26) and Singapore (Oct. 31-Nov.2). Each meet will be three days with prelims and finals.
2024 Swimming World Cup Stops:
Again, if you’re a U.S.-based swimming fan, the action gets underway tonight. In local time, prelims begin at 9:30 am and finals start at 6:30 pm. Refer to the table below to find your city or time zone.
After streaming on YouTube last year, all three stops of the World Cup will be available to stream on the World Aquatics RECAST channel everywhere except Europe. SwimSwam will carry the RECAST channel for U.S. fans for prelims only, available below.
Viewers from the U.S., Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and Guam can also catch all the World Cup action on Peacock.
We’ve reported on the multitude of stars headed to Shanghai setting up some potentially electric matchups on both the men’s and women’s sides.
This includes the “Tremendous 12” athletes who will race at all three stops, including individual Paris Olympic gold medalists Leon Marchand, Kaylee McKeown, Kate Douglass, Pan Zhanle, Nicolo Martinenghi and Thomas Ceccon.
Also announced to be racing the full series are 2024 Olympic medalists Regan Smith, Siobhan Haughey and Zhang Yufei, along with triple 2023 world champion Qin Haiyang, two-time Olympic medalist Arno Kamminga and four-time Olympic medalist Chad Le Clos.
Swimmers Committed To Full Series:
You can watch it on Eurovision with a VPN into France so you don’t have to deal with stupid Recast
Eurovision Sport? It says “Event schedule not available yet or the event is not available in your region” even after he VPN
I’d close it and reopen it then
Just try a different server until you find one that works. Any of these countries should work:
Countries covered: Albania, Andorra, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark (Faroe Islands, Greenland), Estonia, Finland, France (French Guiana, French Polynesia, Guadeloupe, Reunion, Martinique, Mayotte, New Caledonia, St Pierre and Miquelon, French Southern and Antarctic Lands, Wallis and Futuna), Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Moldova, Monaco, Montenegro, Netherlands (Aruba, Netherlands Antilles (Bonaire, Curacao, Saba, Saint Martin, Saint Eustatius), North Macedonia, Norway (Spitsbergen), Poland, Portugal (The Azores, Madeira), Romania, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain (The Canary Islands), Sweden, Switzerland, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, United Kingdom, Uzbekistan, Vatican.
Paid for recast and it’s not working! Can’t find where to actual watch it. Help.
Same need help too!
Ok I’ve googled recast Day 1 World Cup and the link is finally working.
Watch.recast.tv
Have I mentioned how much I hate World Aquatics? I think they will charge me twice too.
Recast has to be the worst platform I’ve ever encountered.
How are fellow Aussies watching this? On Recast.
Is this on NBC live or just peacock?
LETS GO
REGAN VS KAYLEE
I think Marchand will save the WR’s for the World short course championships. After Paris he was out of water 6 weeks or more to be able to cash in on multiple sponsor opportunities and other ventures. Probably won’t be in the best shape in the World Cup stops.
Is Sun Yang swimming?
sun is not entered
If he were truly serious about this comeback he’d be entered here.
Maybe bro is afraid of the international backlash idk
or maybe hes cheating again and doesnt want to get caught this fast
Just realised Zhang is entered in 50 free and 50/100 fly, but not the 200. Seems like Douglass’s series to lose right?
Surely Douglass is going to win the 100/200IM and 200 breast at each stop. I’m assuming KM won’t swim the 200IM because of the conflict with 200 back.
Zhang has strong competition in the 50 free and 100 fly and needs to win all 3 of her events.
Smith is guaranteed the 200 fly, and could win any of the backs or 100 fly.
McKeown could win any of the backs but she’s got a much tougher path in all 3 than she did last year.
Basically if one of Smith or McKeown is off form, the other… Read more »
That’s how I’m seeing it 👍️ Smith has a bit of an advantage over McKeown because her chances in the flys are stronger than McKeown’s in the IMs.
I’m not even considering McKeown having a chance in the IMs. Her only path to victory is sweeping the backstrokes again IMO
Kaylee’s best backup event would’ve been the 400 IM but it clashes with the 100 back and she’s hates it anyway.
Could she add it to a later stop or are all entries final now?
Entries are already out for Incheon. Not sure about Singapore.
Why does swimming have to make watching these events so difficult
Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve solved the mystery as to who MA’s new coach is. It’s Jeff Julian
Former Masters swimmer and coach Loretta (Retta) thrives on a non-stop but productive schedule. Nowadays, that includes having earned her MBA while working full-time in IT while owning French 75 Boutique while also providing swimming insight for BBC.
