2025 WORLD AQUATICS SWIMMING WORLD CUP – Toronto
October 23-25, 2025 Toronto, Canada SCM (25 meters) Meet Central Psych Sheets Live ResultsGood Morning, Eh!
Welcome to the first day of action from Toronto as the 2025 World Aquatics Swimming World Cup comes to a close in Canada’s most populous city. While the series started off with some rocky news, mainly that of Summer McIntosh‘s withdrawal from all three stops, and Leon Marchand‘s limited involvement, the past two stops have had plenty of thrilling storylines to set us up for what is sure to be a thrilling conclusion.
Hungary’s Hubert Kos has been dominant so far in the men’s backstroke events, winning all three in Carmel and in Westmont and will look for the triple-triple crown as his kicks off his campaign in the 200 back. While no women have been so dominate across one stroke, they have been showing up across multiple disciplines as Regan Smith, Gretchen Walsh and Kate Douglass have all won multiple events at the previous two stops.
The trio of Americans along with their Australia rivals Kaylee McKeown and Mollie O’Callaghan have also been raking in the bonus money as each equaled or lowered World records and will be looking to do so again. All of them, save for McKeown have scratched events this morning likely meaning to give themselves the best shot at accomplishing their goals this weekend.
With the move to the north, its the Canadian Age-Group/Club swimmers time to shine as the Great White North will look to find their next great swimmers to join the like of Ilya Kharun, Josh Liendo and Mary-Sophie Harvey. Kharun and Liendo, both 2024 Olympic medalist will cross paths in the 100 fly and 50 free and will be looking for the title as Canada’s fastest swimmer as well as breaking Noe Ponti‘s chance at the 100 fly triple crown.
Ponti, the WR in the 100 fly, will be looking to do the same to the USA’s Shaine Casas, who is not only in the hunt for the triple crown in the 100 IM, but is also looking to become just the 3rd person under the 50 second mark in the event, after having set a new PB of 50.45 last weekend, a result that clocks in as the 9th fastest performance of all time.
