Swimming

French swimmers have achieved qualifying standards in the following events (up to a maximum of 2 swimmers in each event at the A-standard entry time, and 1 at the B-standard):[2] Swimmers must qualify at the 2015 French Championships in Limoges (for pool events) to confirm their places for the Worlds.

The French team consists of 28 swimmers (14 men and 14 women). Among the official roster featured defending World champion Camille Lacourt in the 50 m backstroke and 2012 Olympic champion Florent Manaudou in the 50 m freestyle.[3] Reigning Olympic and World gold medalist Yannick Agnel was initially selected to the team, but had elected to withdraw from the Championships due to health issues, missing out an opportunity to successfully defend his 200 m freestyle title.[4][5]
