Speedo-sponsored athletes like Ryan Lochte, Missy Franklin and Natalie Coughlin will enter the World Cup fray at the FINA World Cup Chartres stop after missing Moscow for a Speedo photo shoot in Europe this week.
While defending FINA World Cup champion Katinka Hosszu is still on center stage as she’s entered every event after taking a huge lead during the Moscow stop, she definitely will have some more competition in France.
For the first time since she first started swimming the FINA World Cup several years ago, Franklin will be able to collect prize-winnings as a new pro. She’s entered in the 50 free, 100 free, 200 free, 50 back, 100 back and 200 back.
Lochte is slated to swim the 200 free, 100 back, 200 back, 200 IM and 400 IM.
Meanwhile, Coughlin is scheduled in the 50 free, 100 free, 50 back and 100 back.
Cameron van der Burgh, who leads the men’s points race, will swim in the three breaststroke events.
