The lineups have been posted for the final of the mixed 400 free relay at the FINA World Championships in Budapest.

The Netherlands posted the top time out of prelims, and they will add Ranomi Kromowidjojo to their lineup, but the United States will be big favorites here with four new swimmers coming in from the morning.

Leading off will be Caeleb Dressel, who will compete on the relay after he swims in the finals of both the 50 free and 100 fly. Seeded first in both his individual events, Dressel could become the first man to win three World Championship golds in one session.

Following Dressel will be men’s 100 free silver medalist Nathan Adrian, women’s 100 free fourth-place finisher Mallory Comerford and women’s 100 free World Champion Simone Manuel.

Penny Oleksiak will join an already-strong Canadian team that qualified third in the prelims, and she will anchor.

Australia, seeded eighth, will not be swimming any of its big guns, including Cameron McEvoyJack CartwrightBronte Campbell or Emma McKeon.

Start lists were distributed inside the Duna Arena but are not available online.
