Worrell dominated on the college level the past two years with her excellent underwater skills, and now that she has graduated, she is putting those abilities on display in front of a more global audience in the slightly longer short course meters pool.<\/p>\n<p>Worrell\u00a0opened the morning session with a 53.12 in the women&#8217;s 100 free, well ahead of the rest of the pack. Hungary&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Katinka Hosszu<\/strong> (53.56) and Denmark&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Jeanette Ottesen<\/strong> (53.63) figure to be her closest competition in finals. Later in the session, Worrell finished just behind Ottesen in the women&#8217;s 50 fly as Ottesen led the way in 25.71, Worrell was second in 25.73, and Canada&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Katerine Savard\u00a0<\/strong>qualified third in 25.79.<\/p>\n<p>Hosszu, who won four gold medals on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/2016-fina-world-cup-singapore-day-one-finals-live-recap\/\" target=\"_blank\">day one<\/a> in Singapore, earned the top seed in the women&#8217;s 200 IM in 2:10.98, just ahead of countrywoman\u00a0<strong>Zsuzsanna Jakobos<\/strong> (2:11.53). She later topped the field in the 400 free, where she posted a 4:09.49 to top China&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Dong Jie<\/strong> (4:10.41) and another Hungarian,\u00a0<strong>Boglarka Kapas<\/strong> (4:11.40).\u00a0Hosszu picked up a third top seed of the\u00a0morning in the women&#8217;s 100 IM, where she clocked 1:00.15 to edge out Jamaica&#8217;s <strong>Alia Atkinson<\/strong> (1:00.21), Australia&#8217;s <strong>Emily Seebohm<\/strong> (1:00.79) and Japan&#8217;s <strong>Kanako<\/strong> <strong>Watanabe<\/strong> (1:00.83).<\/p>\n<p>Hosszu currently leads the overall World Cup standings on the women&#8217;s side, and the men&#8217;s points leader, Russia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Vladimir Morozov<\/strong>, also showed good form in prelims. Morozov, after winning the 100 free and 100 IM Friday, finished first in the 100 breast prelims in 58.93, narrowly topping Brazil&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Felipe Lima<\/strong> (59.01). Morozov later qualified first in the 50 free in 21.48, three one-hundredths ahead of Finland&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Ari-Pekka Liukkonen\u00a0<\/strong>(21.51).<\/p>\n<p>Belgium&#8217;s <strong>Pieter Timmers<\/strong> topped the field in the men&#8217;s 200 free with a 1:46.44, just edging out Australia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Kyle Chalmers<\/strong>, who set a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/kyle-chalmers-sprints-to-new-100-free-world-junior-record-at-singapore-world-cup\/\" target=\"_blank\">world junior record<\/a> on day one in the 100 free. Japan&#8217;s <strong>Daiya Seto<\/strong> (1:46.90) and Great Britain&#8217;s <strong>James Guy\u00a0<\/strong>(1:47.14) figure to make this a competitive race in finals.\u00a0South Africa&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Chad le Clos<\/strong> posted a 51.62 to lead the way in the men&#8217;s 100 fly. Belarus&#8217;\u00a0<strong>Pavel Sankovich<\/strong> was just behind with a 51.74, and Seto\u00a0qualified third in 51.91.<\/p>\n<p>Atkinson blitzed the field in the women&#8217;s 50 breast with a 29.58, well ahead of Russia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Yulia Efimova<\/strong> (30.22) and the USA&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Molly Hannis<\/strong> (30.56).

Australia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Madison Wilson<\/strong> (58.64) and Hosszu (58.94) are lurking.<\/p>\n<p>Australia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Mitch Larkin\u00a0<\/strong>claimed the top seed in the men&#8217;s 50 back in 23.73, just ahead of Sankovich (23.75) and Russia&#8217;s\u00a0<strong>Stanislav Donets<\/strong> (23.95). Seto, meanwhile, was the only man under 2:00 in the 200 IM, coming in at 1:59.98 in prelims.
