Double Olympic champion in synchronized swimming Vlada Chigireva said in an interview with that at the 2024 Games in Paris, she was sad to see the programs organized under the new rules.
In the current Olympic cycle, World Aquatics has changed the rules of synchronized swimming, which has affected both the content of the programs and the judging.
— I watched the Games of past years – I’m not talking only about our programs, but about the level of all teams as a whole. There were great performances, great synchronized swimming, everyone was trying to amaze and invent new elements. You looked fascinated, it was interesting to watch. Now all the connections are the same, creativity is minimal, they sacrifice it. It’s very sad to watch these programs.
I am sorry that my favorite sport is downhill. It seems that management really wanted them to start betting on synchronized swimming. Canadian Jacqueline Simoneau was happy that the unpredictability of the results was growing. But what is the point of this unpredictability if it is about who filled out the coaching sheets and how.
“I know a team that came to Paris and was not allowed to change its coach card. They went out and knew that they would receive basic grades. Is this the Olympics of paperwork to fill out? For me, with the new rules, everything has changed for the worse,” Chigireva said in an interview with .
The Paris Olympics will end on August 11.
