Can you name every short course meters world record-holder in swimming?
Short course meters is often the forgotten course – not included in the Olympics or in the NCAA. But the International Swimming League is providing a high-profile medium for short course meters swims, and that makes it a timely subject for our latest SwimSwam swimming quiz.
Some notes:
- Entering the last name only is enough to get credit – and it gets you out of having to spell first names!
- In cases of ties, either record-holder should get you credit.
- These are in short course meters, as of October 23, 2020.
- We’ve tried to account for a few spelling variations, but you’ll mostly have to spell names correctly.

36/36 lets go
31/36 missed Paltrinieri, Larkin, VDB and Medeiros
30/36… what have I become
Everyone is doing fairly well on this one…previous quizzes had many people get only around half of the answers correct
Everyone has probably been googling these fairly recently because of ISL
which explains why the most commonly missed answer is kohler. the 800/1500 arent in the isl and kohler is easily the most obscure of the distance free wr holders
That makes sense! Those two were among the three i missed.
Better than me. 29/36 here
