The start lists for the mixed 4×100 medley relay were made available before the start of the fourth night of finals at the 2019 FINA World Swimming Championships. The United States are the top seeds in the relay and will be swimming Ryan Murphy, Lilly King, Caeleb Dressel, Simone Manuel as they are going the same gender order that they set the world record in in 2017, going man-woman-man-woman. The United States should be tough to beat with two world record holders, a World Champion, and an Olympic Champion on their team.
Australia is the second seeded team and will have Mitch Larkin, Matthew Wilson, Emma McKeon and Cate Campbell swimming for them. The Aussies had the top time in the world in 2018 and will be swimming the same gender order that got them there, going man-man-woman-woman.
Russia, Australia and Italy are the only countries going two men first.
