If i masturbate in a swimming pool could my sperm swim up a random woman and get her pregnant?

Unlikely: I doubt that would ever happen.The over-hydration would likely render the sperm impaired to the point they would never work.I do recall an instance where this argument was used in a paternity case,but this was long ago and likely more myth than real.

No.: Chlorinated water will kill the sperm too quickly for them to be viable.
