The Final legs of the World Aquatics Swimming World Cup 2025 in Toronto saw a gluten of new Short Course World Records and the Propulsion Swimming Podcast are here to discuss all.

The meet was highlighted by two major barriers being broken for the first time in history: the women's 100m freestyle and the men's 200m breaststroke.

On the women's side, Kate Douglass of the USA made history by becoming the first woman to ever swim the 100m freestyle in under 50 seconds, clocking a stunning new world record of 49.93. The Australian women also dominated. Lani Pallister crushed the 800m freestyle record with a time of 7:54.00, taking more than three seconds off the previous mark. Her compatriots Kaylee McKeown and Mollie O'Callaghan both lowered their own recent world records; McKeown in the 200m backstroke (1:57.33) and O'Callaghan in the 200m freestyle (1:49.36).

For the men, Caspar Corbeau of the Netherlands achieved a monumental feat, becoming the first man to break the two-minute barrier in the 200m breaststroke with a new world record of 1:59.52. Hubert Kos of Hungary was another standout, setting two world records over the weekend: one in the 200m backstroke (1:45.12) and another in the 100m backstroke (48.16). Finally, Josh Liendo gave the home crowd a thrill by setting a new world record in the 100m butterfly with a time of 47.68.
