2026 LAUSANNE SWIM CUP
Friday, March 13th – Sunday, March 15th Vaudoise Aréna, Lausanne, Switzerland LCM (50m) Meet Central SwimSwam Preview Day 1 Recap Entries/Live Results Race Videos: Friday Saturday SundayDay two of the prestigious Lausanne Swim Cup unfolded with multiple conveyers of talent making their presence known at this in-season affair.
Former University of Texas Longhorn and Olympic medalist Caspar Corbeau was among them, doubling up on his 50m breaststroke victory from day one with a gold in the 100m sprint.
Corbeau stopped the clock at 1:00.07 in tonight’s final to hold a healthy advantage over the next-closest swimmer Antoine Viquerat of France.
Viquerat touched in 1:00.83 as the runner-up while teammate Carl Aitkaci rounded out the podium in 1:01.10.
24-year-old Corbeau was actually quicker this morning, turning in a heats swim of 59.89 (27.96/31.93) to rank among the top 20 performers thus far this season. His best-ever remains at the speedy 59.03 logged at last year’s World Championships.
World Championships multi-gold medalist Maxime Grousset of France tried the 50m fly on for size where he found success in a dominant effort of 22.78.
That represented the sole outing of the pack to clear the 23-second barrier, as Olympic medalist Noe Ponti of the host nation was relegated to the silver medal position in 23.07.
But Ponti wasn’t alone, as Thomas Ceccon of Italy, the reigning 100m backstroke world record holder and Olympic champion, touched simultaneously in 23.07 to share runner-up honors.
26-year-old Grousset entered this competition already ranked #1 in the world in the men’s 50m fly due to his 22.80 punched at January’s Pro Swim Series in Austin. Therefore, tonight’s faster performance further solidifies him as the man to beat at the moment.

Patrick Sammon delivered a time of 1:47.52 to hold a healthy advantage over the rest of the field, one which included countryman Grant House.
House settled for silver in 1:48.14 and Timo Sorgius of Germany also landed on the podium in 1:48.56, good enough for bronze.
As for 22-year-old Sammon, he’s been as speedy as 1:46.54 in his career from last year’s U.S. Summer Open Championships. Also in 2025, he helped the U.S. win gold in the mixed 4x100m free relay and bronze in the men’s 4x100m free relay at the World Championships in Singapore.
Lisa Angiolini of Italy proved to be a highlight on the women’s side en route to her victory in the 100m breaststroke.
30-year-old veteran Angiolini notched a gold medal-worthy 1:06.80 to get to the wall nearly a second ahead of her peers.
Belgian Florine Gaspard scored silver in 1:07.62 and Swiss swimmer Kay-Lyn Loehr hit 1:08.28 for bronze.
The women’s edition of the 50m fly saw Marie Wattel soar to the gold in a super swift result of 26.09.
That cleared the pack by nearly a second, with Italy’s Chiara Tarantino nabbing silver in 27.04 followed by Swiss athlete Angelique Brugger who notched 27.29.
28-year-old Wattel of France fell just shy of the 26.01 season-best she established at January’s Pro Swim in the United States.
