2025 WORLD AQUATICS SWIMMING WORLD CUP – Westmont
October 17-19, 2025 Westmont, Illinois SCM (25 meters) Meet Central Psych Sheets Live Results Live Recaps: Prelims: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 Finals: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3We are two stops into the World Cup Series, with just the Toronto leg to go, and Gretchen Walsh and Hubert Kos lead the current overall standings, but Walsh has just 0.1 points over Kate Douglass.
At the end of the 1st stop, Walsh sat 0.2 points ahead of Douglass with 59.1 points to Douglass’ 58.9. That lead shrunk over the course of the Westmont stop, with Douglass earning the stop win thanks to her World Record performance in the women’s 100 freestyle.
Walsh holds the lead with 118.1 points while Douglass sits at 118. Regan Smith is 3rd with 114.4 points, just 0.7 points ahead of Australian rival Kaylee McKeown‘s 113.7 points for 4th and 0.9 points ahead of Lani Pallister‘s 113.5 for 5th.
Hubert Kos sits comfortably ahead of Ilya Kharun with 3.3 points separating them. Kos has 116.4 points while Kharun sits at 113.1, just 0.8 points ahead of American Shaine Casas‘ score of 112.3. Caspar Corbeau comes in just behind Casas at 112.1, and then there is a 3.4 point gap before Noe Ponti‘s 107.7 for 5th.
As a reminder, the top 20 finishers from each stop earn a cash prize, while the top eight overall finishers will receive a larger prize with the winner walking home with $100,000.

This score exactly matches what Walsh scored at the first stop in Carmel.
Both Douglass and Walsh could walk away with the title, and there is no way to predict who will come out on top. They will both need to be perfect this weekend, and even if they win all three of their events, a win is not guaranteed. Last year, Douglass went into the final stop 0.1 points behind Regan Smith, and she came out on top of the overall rankings by 0.1 points.
The battle between these two will be determined solely on AQUA points, and with the way the World Cup has gone so far, it will be determined by World Records. The swimmer who breaks more records, or gets close to them, will win the $100,000 prize.
If Regan Smith continues to have the series she has been having, she will likely finish 3rd overall, though if she drops the 100 back to Kaylee McKeown, she could drop out of the top five entirely.
McKeown is in a similar boat, though she sits only 0.2 points ahead of Pallister, and will need to win the 50 back and 200 back to stay ahead, particularly because Pallister does not have a lot of competition in the 400 and 800 free.
Also pay attention to the race for 8th overall, which is the last athlete to earn overall prize money at $10,000. Currently Erika Fairweather holds the spot on the women’s side at 96.8. Alex Walsh is only a point behind Fairweather in 95.8, and she could easily find her way up the leaderboard, especially after she outscored her by 2.4 points last week.

He won all three of his individual events and brought in 28 AQUA points to score just 0.3 points more than Ilya Kharun, who scored 57.7 points.
Shaine Casas won the Westmont stop, scoring 58.5 points after he also won all three of his events, and scored 28.5 AQUA points.
We have just one meet remaining in Toronto to determine the final standings. Kos has the most comfortable lead in the competition right now, and if he wins all three of his individual events, nobody can catch him for the win. Even if he finishes 2nd, there is only a two point difference between 1st and 2nd, and he has more than three points on the rest of the competition, so he should be safe.
If he drops below 2nd, though, Kharun, Casas, and Corbeau are all in striking distance. They would need to capitalize on his loss, though, by winning all three of their events, and the battle between these three will be determined by AQUA points.
Kos’ shakiest event is the 50 backstroke, where he won by just 0.1 second last weekend. Both Kacper Stokowski and Thomas Ceccon could overtake him in that race, which would have a four point swing and could be the difference between the win and fourth place overall.
There is also a slight battle brewing for 8th place. Ilya Shymanovich comes in behind Ceccon at 89.8, 1.7 points back. Ceccon scored more points in Westmont, but Shymanovich came out on top of Carmel.
