The country is sending 51 athletes to next month\u2019s edition in Kazan, Russia, to try and improve on the nine total medals two years ago.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sun Yang<\/strong>, who won three of those golds in Barcelona in 2013, is the star of the squad. Yang is looking to repeat as the Male Swimmer of the Meet and defend his world titles in the 400, 800 and 1500 freestyles. He is also a major gold medal contender in the 200 freestyle, and he could become the first to win four freestyle medals in one world championships.<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s other world champions from 2013 did not make the roster. <strong>Zhao Jing<\/strong>, the reigning world champion and world record holder in the women\u2019s 50 backstroke; and <strong>Liu Zige<\/strong>, the reigning world champion and world record holder in the 200 butterfly, did not swim fast enough to qualify for this year\u2019s team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ye Shiwen<\/strong> will be on the team, looking to return to the form that garnered her a sweep of the individual medleys at the 2012 Olympics. Ye is the world record holder in the 400 IM, and faltered in 2013. She led last year\u2019s world ranking in the 400 IM and was fourth in the 200 IM, so she could be in the hunt for medals in Russia.<\/p>\n<p>Another name to watch is <strong>Ning Zetao<\/strong>, who will put China in position to win a medal in all six freestyle distances in one gender. The last country to do that was Australia at the 1998 world championships, where the men took a medal in all freestyle races. Germany almost did it at the 2001 worlds, missing out in the women\u2019s 200 free. Ning is in position for medals in the sprint freestyles in his debut world championships, especially in the 100 freestyle after a stunning <a href=http:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ning-zetao-breaks-own-asian-record-in-100-free-at-chinese-nationals\/ target=_blank>47.65 last fall<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wang Shun<\/strong> is another medal possibility for the Chinese men. He comes in to the meet ranked seventh in the 200 IM, looking for China\u2019s first worlds medal in that event.<\/p>\n<p>Zhao Jing\u2019s absence will be filled by <strong>Fu Yuanhui<\/strong>, who was second in the 50 back to Zhao in 2013. <strong>Lu Ying<\/strong>, the Asian record holder in the 50 butterfly and silver medalist in 2013, is also on the roster, as is <strong>Shen Duo<\/strong>. Shen had a breakout year in 2014, breaking <a href=http:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/youth-olympic-games-day-three-finals-live-recap\/ target=_blank>the world junior record in the 100 free at the Youth Olympics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>China\u2019s swimming world championship roster<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Men<\/strong><br \/>\nHao Yun<br \/>\nHe Jianbin<br \/>\nHe Tiangi<br \/>\nHu Yixuan<br \/>\nHuang Chaosheng<br \/>\nLi Guangyuan<br \/>\nLi Xiang<br \/>\nLi Yunqi<br \/>\nLi Zhuhao<br \/>\nLin Yongqin<br \/>\nMao Feilian<br \/>\nNing Zetao<br \/>\nShang Keyuan<br \/>\nShi Weijia<br \/>\nShi Yang<br \/>\nSun Yang<br \/>\nWang Kecheng<br \/>\nWang Pudong<br \/>\nWang Shun<br \/>\nXu Jiayu<br \/>\nXu Qiheng<br \/>\nYang Zhixian<br \/>\nYu Hexin<br \/>\nZhang Jie<br \/>\nZhang Qibin<\/p>\n<p><strong>Women<\/strong><br \/>\nAi Yanhan<br \/>\nCao Yue<br \/>\nJie Chen<br \/>\nChen Xinyi<br \/>\nFang Yi<br \/>\nFu Yuanhui<br \/>\nGuo Junjun<br \/>\nHe Yun<br \/>\nLiu Xiang<br \/>\nLiu Yaxin<br \/>\nLu Ying<br \/>\nYuhan Qiu<br \/>\nShao Yiwen<br \/>\nShen Duo<br \/>\nShi Jinglin<br \/>\nSun Meichen<br \/>\nSuo Ran<br \/>\nTang Yutin<br \/>\nWang Guoyue<br \/>\nYe Shiwen<br \/>\nZhang Xinyu<br \/>\nZhang Yufei<br \/>\nZhang Yuhan<br \/>\nZhou Min<br \/>\nZhou Yilin<br \/>\nZhumeng Hui<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China was a dominant force in swimming at the 2013 FINA world championships, winning five gold medals to rank second behind the U.S. in terms of gold medals won.
