- Abstract
Purpose: to determine the winner-swimmers skill development level by the result of final rounds at the World Aquatics Championship in Budapest-2017. Material: the winner-swimmers' result analysis at World Aquatics Championship on 23 - 30 Jul 2017 in Budapest, among 76 men and 74 women who received gold, silver and bronze medals from the strongest 23countries. Results: the article reveals some similarities and differences in the swimming skill level assessment among men and women swimmers of different age, winners of the XVII world Aquatics Championship in Budapest-2017. The general difference of the highest and lowest swimmers' results according to the received awards is 956 (men points) and 960 (women points), the difference is 6 points. Conclusions: it is necessary to count the total award number (gold, silver and bronze) (men - 974 - 953 - 942 = 956 the difference is 21 and 11 points, women - 981 - 957 - 943 = 960, the difference is 24 and 14 points) to make a top list more correctly, as the separate estimation (firstly only gold, then only silver and bronze) doesn't show real swimmers' achievements through medals. The standard top list is based on separate estimation, in such a way the participant country getting only one gold award takes higher position than the countries with greater award number.
