Australia's top swimming stars are in action at their 2023 World Championship Trials from 13-18 June at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre.

The event serves as the national qualifying event for July's World Aquatics Championships in Fukuoka up for grabs.

Having just missed out on qualification for last year's Worlds, singer-turned-athlete Cody Simpson will bid for a place in the Dolphins team for Japan having made his international debut at last year's Commonwealth Games.

He is due to compete in the 50m butterfly, 100m butterfly, and 100m freestyle events.

Simpson will have to finish in the top two in his two 100m events and meet the respective qualifying time (51.28 in fly and 47.96 in free) to earn selection in those events. As the 50m butterfly is a non-Olympic event, selection in this event will be made by the Australian national team's head coach.
