With no Russia, expect a lot of medals to be won by other nations. :AUT is third after the qualification round in the women's duet technical.

 

It's also dumb that Canada hasn't competed in the duets here (or at the World Cups). There's a good chance we'll fail to qualify a team to the Olympics and I don't think it will be a good idea to try and scramble a routine to qualify in the duets (though on paper we should qualify relatively easily).

There will be 18 or 22 duets in Paris?

Tuned in for the solo free final... Pretty uneventful. :p

 

I think the TV direction is ruining this sport. It's impossible to appreciate the choreography with all these constant cuts. At the very least they could remove those obnoxious underwater gimmick shots which add no value whatsoever!

So Anita Alvarez :USA became unwell after her routine in one of the finals yesterday (7th) and sank to the bottom :yikes: 

 

Thankfully her coach was very well aware of what was happening, jumped right in and picked her up from the bottom of the pool. When she was coming up, someone from the organization jumped in as well and helped her to the side and out of the pool, where Alvarez regained consciousness.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Resident artistic swimming commentator was pretty chill about it: "Oh, this happened to her before [at the Olympic qualifier etc]." :p
