Your money tables shows that Sasha Touretski earned $900, but Alexandra Touretski earned $1300.
Sasha is diminutive name for Alexandra in Russian. So if those swimmers are indeed two different persons it will be very weird. If it is not then how much has Sasha(Alexandra) actually earned?

So, if Sarah Sjostrom shows same performance in Budapest she will be out of reach in bonus points competition and is actually guaranteed the Grand Prize. She doesn’t need to swim hard in Asian cluster to be the winner.
Hosszu to stay above Efimova needs another Doha where her level of performance will be good enough to earn bonus points.
If Wang Jianjiahe participates in Asian Cluster she has a good chances to be the second in total points count under conditions that competition at Asian stops will be at the same level as at European ones. But I think it won’t happen and Hosszu will secure her second place by winning in some ridiculous races.
