In her first competition as a full-time professional, Torri Huske took on a busy schedule at the 2026 Pro Swim Series stop in Sacramento, and it paid dividends, as the 23-year-old led all athletes in prize money earnings.
Huske won four events, topping the women’s 200 free (1:57.15), 50 fly (25.95), 100 fly (57.46) and 200 IM (2:11.34), and added a runner-up finish in the 100 free (54.13) to earn a total of $8,500.
At each Pro Swim Series in 2026, the top three finishers in each event earn a standard amount of money: $1,500 for winning, $1,000 for placing 2nd, and $500 for taking 3rd.
However, each individual stop has certain races featured as “super events,” where the prize money is doubled for the winner.
2026 Pro Swim Series – Prize Money
| Standard Events | Super Events |
| 1st – $1,500 | 1st – $3,000 |
| 2nd – $1,000 | 2nd – $1,000 |
| 3rd – $500 | 3rd – $500 |
In Sacramento, the 200 free, 200 back, 200 breast and 200 fly for both genders, and the women’s 1500 free, were “super events,” meaning Huske earned $3,000 for her victory in the 200 free in addition to claiming $1,500 apiece for winning the 50 fly, 100 fly and 200 IM, and an extra $1,000 for taking 2nd in the 100 free.
The recent Stanford grad also placed 4th in the 50 free and 12th in the 200 back, fully embracing the busy schedule with 15 swims across the four-day meet.
Eastern Express Swim Team’s Kennedi Dobson, fresh off a strong freshman year at Georgia, was the second-highest earner of the meet with $5,500. The 19-year-old secured victories in the women’s 400 free (4:07.64), 800 free (8:33.50) and 400 IM (4:43.73), and added a runner-up finish to Huske in the 200 free (1:57.38).
Dobson notably set new personal best times with her swims in the 200 free, 800 free and 400 IM, while in the 400 free, she was less than a second shy of her PB from last year’s World Junior Championships of 4:06.66.
Trailing Huske and Dobson were three swimmers tied with $5,000, including age group phenom Luka Mijatovic, who led all male swimmers.
The 17-year-old swept the men’s 400 free (3:45.20), 800 free (7:47.08) and 1500 free (14:59.27), setting personal bests in all three and lowering his 17-18 NAG record in the former, and he added a 3rd-place finish in the 200 free (1:48.11).
Also earning $5,000 were 16-year-old Mikayla Tan, who won the women’s 100 and 200 breaststroke, and 20-year-old Swede Thilda Haell, who lowered her national record en route to victory in the women’s 1500 free in addition to finishing as the runner-up in both the 400 and 800 free.
PRIZE MONEY EARNINGS – SACRAMENTO PRO SWIM SERIES
Note that the prize money listed below is what was earned, not necessarily accepted, due to current NCAA student-athletes being ineligible to accept anything more than their “actual and necessary expenses.” Earlier this month, the NCAA agreed to a settlement that is expected to see it amend its rules allowing student-athletes to accept prize money prior to enrollment.

Calling anything a pro series in which the earnings can’t even pay Your bills should be illegal. If they keep this up All your best athletes will join the enhanced games to make some real money and retire. Banning athletes from the existing organized sporting events means nothing if you don’t have money to back it up.
Tori Huske could’ve made $1 million dollars on Sunday in the Enhanced Games competing clean.
Pigeon food
Wouldn’t Keaton Jones have made 4k because of his win in the 200 backstroke?
Yes. I missed doubling the 200 back winners (him and Rhyan White). Fixed and update. Thanks.
I am not in support of the Enhanced Games in the slightest, but seeing this and the Enhanced money back to back is staggering. $8500 vs $1.5 million is crazy.
Again, pretty sure Enhanced is all blood money but how is there THAT much discrepancy!
The entire business model of the enhanced games is to sell trt and peptides and supplements to middle-aged people with disposable income. Their products have extremely high profit margins. They’re counting on consumers not knowing any better and buying into the brand of the enhanced games protocol. Example, I can buy a 10 ml vial of testosterone cypionate at my local grocery store with a gold RX discount card for $39. That’s out of pocket. No insurance involved . That would last me 3 months. The same 3-month supply through the enhanced games website would be almost $500. All their products are extremely overpriced. There’s nothing special about their products. Everything has to go through FDA inspections to verify its… Read more »
From a spectacle point of view, the AP international is infinitely more entertaining …. Maybe USA swimming can try to learn from them? And maybe attract more $$$$ to the event?
8.5k ain’t a bad haul lol
quite embarassing money list after EG….USA Swimming – do better!
totally agree. add another zero at least.
USA Swimming had a 1 million deficit last year. Where do you think they should get the money?
This is embarrassing! USA swimming should be marketing to younger swimmers. Several Olympiciab were at the meet including a gold medalist!
Figure out how to make more revenue.
They should create a better product to sell. Simple
