2009 has been a memorable year in the sport of swimming, highlighted by some major ups and down and overshadowed by a huge controversy which some claimed was destroying the sport, while the sport continued to grow and increase in popularity, leading to no less than four appearances on NBC (not including NCAA coverage).
Records were set, and plenty of them: 140 world records were set, along with seven times better than the world record but disallowed to stand as global standards. 83 American records were set (not including world records set by Americans), of which 16 were disallowed because of a change in USA Swimming rules. Below is a full list of records set, with the most recent on top:
World records set by American swimmers are in the world record list only, not the American record list as well. Disallowed records are in italics. For world records set by Americans after October 1, the country code or name is in italics to represent that these marks do not stand as American records.
