Hosszu Wins World Cup Cluster 2 By 3 Points Over Sjostrom

2017 FINA WORLD CUP – DOHA

The second cluster of the World Cup was a nailbiter on the women’s side, with Katinka Hosszu eking out a win by just 3 points over Sarah Sjostrom. That 3-point margin translates to a $15,000 difference in cluster bonuses.

Sjostrom outscored Hosszu by 3 points in Doha, but Hosszu had built a 6-point lead in Hong Kong. Meanwhile Chad le Clos easily won the men’s second cluster and earned his second $50,000 bonus of the tour.

Sjostrom still leads Hosszu in overall tour points, though, holding a strong 87-point margin with three meets remaining. Le Clos is the runaway men’s leader, 110 points ahead of second-place Kirill Prigoda.
