Ferry Weertman is leading the rankings in the 2018 FINA/HOSA Marathon Swim World Series heading into the season-culminating race in the United Arab Emirates.

His lead – 78 points to 62 points for second-place Jack Burnell and third-place Simone Ruffini, the 2017 series champion, seems to be a reasonably comfortable cushion to win his first World Series title.

After races in Doha in Qatar, Victoria in Seychelles, Setúbal in Portugal, Balatonfüred in Hungary, lac St-Jean and lac Mégantic in Canada, Chun’an in China, the world’s fastest open water swimmer will be headed to Abu Dhabi in November for the season-culminating race in the United Arab Emirates.
