The list of entrants includes six swimmers who won individual gold medals, France&#8217;s <strong>Leon Marchand<\/strong>, Australia&#8217;s <strong>Kaylee McKeown<\/strong>, China&#8217;s <strong>Pan Zhanle<\/strong>,\u00a0the United States&#8217; <strong>Kate Douglass<\/strong> and Italian swimmers\u00a0<strong>Thomas Ceccon<\/strong> and <strong>Nicolo Martinenghi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Marchand will be making his first foray into racing in the 25-meter course, and given his dominance in yards during his college career and then his four-gold-medal effort in Paris, it would be no surprise if he begins knocking off world records throughout the World Cup circuit as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/bob-bowman-discusses-next-steps-for-leon-marchand-i-dont-think-hes-anything-near-what-hes-capable-of-doing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">he launches the next chapter of his career<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>McKeown, who recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/flash-kaylee-mckeown-shatters-100-backstroke-world-record-at-aussie-short-course-champs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lowered the short course world record in the 100 back at the Australian Short Course Championships<\/a>, will face off with American\u00a0<strong>Regan Smith<\/strong> in the backstroke events during the World Cup. McKeown edged Smith in the 100 and 200-meter long course races in Paris as the Aussie swept the backstroke events for the second consecutive Games, although Smith did finish the summer with the long course world record in the 100 back as well as the Olympic record.<\/p>\n<p>The host nation, China, will unsurprisingly bring many of its top swimmers to the meet, with Pan coming off an incredible Olympics in which he clocked 46.40 to dominate the men&#8217;s 100 free before splitting 45.92 to anchor China to 400 medley relay gold. The delegation also includes breaststroke world-record holder <strong>Qin Haiyang<\/strong> and Tokyo gold medalists\u00a0<strong>Zhang Yufei<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>Wang Shun<\/strong>, plus Paris medalists\u00a0<strong>Xu Jiayu<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Tang Qianting<\/strong>, <strong>Sun Jiajun<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Wang Changhao<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Yang Junxuan<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Cheng Yujie<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Wu Qingfeng<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Yu Yiting<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Ge Chutong<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Liu Yaxin<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Tang Muhan<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Kong Yaqi<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Wan Letian<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>Wang Xueer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Smith and Douglass, the 200 breast winner from Paris, lead a group of nine Americans scheduled to compete, with fellow Paris swimmer\u00a0<strong>Kieran Smith<\/strong> plus Tokyo Olympian\u00a0<strong>Michael Andrew<\/strong> and as well as veterans\u00a0<strong>Charlie Clark<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Jack Dahlgren<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Jack Dolan<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Trenton Julian<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>Beata Nelson<\/strong>.
