The U.S. team for the world swimming championships will be determined this week, and it’s going to include some new faces.
Absent are the retired Michael Phelps and Maya DiRado, suspended Ryan Lochte and recovering Missy Franklin.
Katie Ledecky is the headliner, but there are of course many others who will emerge this week as medal favorites for Budapest next month.
The top two per individual event at the USA Swimming National Championships, part of the TeamUSA Summer Champions Series, presented by Comcast, are in line to make the world team.
