Thank you to Andrew Mering for setting up the game!

The contest is open now and will be live until the evening of Monday, June 2nd, when the competition will close ahead of the first prelims session on Tuesday morning.

If you need help making picks, we’re publishing event-by-event previews and updating our preview index.

Read on for a refresher on the scoring system and prize eligibility.

Scoring System

Correctly picking a swimmer to place:

• 1st – 7 points
• 2nd – 5 points
• 3rd – 4 points
• 4th – 3 points

Correctly picking a swimmer to place in the top 4 but putting them in the wrong spot, will earn you 1 point. Note that on the psych sheet, most swimmers are entered for the 50s of stroke with 100 times, so make sure you scroll through if you don’t immediately see the swimmer you’re looking for.

Picks will close at 8pm Eastern Time on Monday, June 2, and at that time, we will post everyone’s picks for them to see.

You may go in and edit your responses up until the form closes. You can also use this “edit responses” ability to go in and print or save your answers.

The tiebreaker for prizes, if necessary, will be the most correctly picked winners in the relevant time period, then 2nd-place finishers, then 3rd-place finishers, etc. in the relevant time period.

• Daily Prizes:  Goggles (V3 or Speed Socket), Teamster bag, plus snorkel
