Explanation
The ranking is based on the Olympic Games and the World Championships. The system also includes continental championships, which are weighted according to their importance on the international stage, as well as short-course competitions, which carry a lower point value than events held in a 50-metre pool.
Relay events receive three times the points of individual disciplines in order to increase their importance in the national rankings, but they are not included in the individual rankings.
