you'll also need to swim 75 yards underwater to pass openwater (or something like that)
If you have trouble swimming that's gonna be difficult for ya.

I would say breast.
Do I have to be a great swimmer to be certified as a PADI Open Water Diver?
No. You need to be a reasonably proficient swimmer and comfortable in the water. You must swim 200 metres/200 yards nonstop, without a time or specific stroke requirement or a 300 metre/yard swim with mask, fins and snorkel. You'll also perform a 10 minute tread/float

I did not have to do this for my open water.

I think the penalty stroke is the easiest. You can write it down without even swinging a club.
