GENEVA:  Women's world record holder in the 200-meter breaststroke Yevgeniya Chikunova and three-time bronze medalist at the world swimming championships Kirill Prigoda highlight a number of Russian swimmers who have been granted the right to participate in the 2024 World Aquatics World Championship (25m) in Hungary this month as neutrals, the World Aquatics said in a statement on Thursday.

Also allowed to take part under a neutral status was European Champion Ilya Borodin and junior world record holder in the 100-meter backstroke Miron Lifintsev.

In all, over 30 Russian swimmers, including Yulia Yefimova and Andrey Minakov, were granted neutral status to participate in the 2024 World Aquatics World Championship (25m), which will be held in Budapest, Hungary between December 10 and 15.

According to the tournament’s official website "Swimmers from around 200 nations will compete in 45 events over the six days of action. The World Aquatics Swimming Championships (25m) features an impressive $2.025 million prize purse and a $25,000 bonus for any World Record set at the Championships."

In March 2023, World Aquatics (FINA until December 2022) ruled to bar Russia and Belarus from any future FINA-sanctioned international swimming events.

Prior to the World Aquatics ruling in March 2023, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) issued recommendations on February 28, 2022, to international sports federations to bar athletes from Russia and Belarus from taking part in international tournaments.
