LCM (50 meters) Note: For our top nations’ aggregate times below, the first column (Season-Best) is the sum of each leg’s best flat-start time during the qualifying period, not factoring relay starts.

If the athlete’s best is from a flat start, we’ve used that over their fastest relay split. The presumptive leadoff swimmer of each relay is listed first with their flat-start best, followed by three with relay splits unless otherwise noted.
