World champion in synchronized swimming Simono: “For the first time, the result at the Olympics is unpredictable”

Canadian synchronized swimming world champion Jacqueline Simoneau said she was pleased with changes to the rules of her sport, which make results unpredictable.

In the current Olympic cycle of synchronized swimming, changes were made to the rules regarding both the content of the programs and the judging. Simoneau became the solo world champion in 2024. The Russian team will not perform at the Paris Olympics. Russian synchronized swimmers have won the Games since 2000.

“For the first time in the history of the Olympic Games, the outcome will be unpredictable. The scoring system has completely changed. Now, on the first day of the competition, you can be the leader and on the last day, you can be the last.

When we watched synchronized swimming, they were great programs, but few people realized how difficult the sport is. With the rule change, we were even more underwater. I left the sport, but then the rules changed, which encouraged me to come back.

“This is already the third Olympic Games for me. There is an opportunity to enjoy every moment, leaving the situation with pressure,” reports the correspondent of , according to Simono’s words.
