Top 10 Female Pro Swimmers

Posted by

If you follow triathlon at all, you likely think you know who the #1 female swimmer is.

Lucy, I suspect.

But when I watched the Collins Cup, I was impressed, to say the least, to see another woman stick to her heels for the entire swim (Katie Zaferes). (Related: Hear her talk about that swim with IronmanHacks here.)

And now Lucy’s not #1, and Katie isn’t even in the top 100. This is because the rankings are based on recent points earned, and are not exactly the be-all and end-all of rankings. But they’re still fun to look at.

  1. 🇺🇸 Lauren Brandon
  2. 🇬🇧 Lucy Charles-Barkley
  3. 🇺🇸 Rachel Zilinskas
  4. 🇬🇧 Lucy Buckingham
  5. 🇺🇸 Taylor Knibb
  6. 🇺🇸 Haley Chura
  7. 🇪🇸 Sara Perez Sala
  8. 🇧🇷 Pamella Oliveira
  9. 🇬🇧 Fenella Langridge
  10. 🇳🇱 Lotte Wilms

Results are as of July 25, 2022.

Keep in mind that the rankings here are based on the average of the athlete’s three best eligible results, so they can change rapidly and dramatically.
