Good luck ! I wish one day Indian team win the artistic swimming gold medal in Olympics.

The downfall of the US in synchronized swimming is crazy like at the beginning of synchro they were the best and now they are trying to qualify

The Japanese government has officially announced that it will provide food to athletes from various countries participating in the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2020 by making agricultural products and various kinds of food products produced in Fukushima where the nuclear power plant exploded. The Japanese government is in the position to announce to the world that agricultural products, livestock products and seafood produced in Fukushima are safe from misunderstandings of contamination of radioactivity.

How is it possible to defeat the Russians? They won 10 times from Sydney, Australia in 2000 to Rio De Janiero, Brazil in 2016 and now they're trying to win the 11th gold in Tokyo since the last time the US has won gold was back in '84 in Los Angeles and in '92 in Barcelona for the duets, and then Atlanta in '96 for the team event. These Russian swimmers are always cheating in this event and most of the Americans are always stuck on a losing streak in this event. Will these girls have to end America's gold medal drought so that they can stop the Russian's winning streak and claim victory for the American dream?

[@user-gy5oz7gi8r]

These Russian swimmers train 12 hours a day. Is it cheating?

[@jasonli7547]

This should be banned, these girls makes teenage boys nose bleeding. By the way, is there any similar "artistic swimming" performed by men?

[@kayth1373]

just maybe... it's the teenage boy's fault.

[@paruhblgen4222]

Not best looking team. Althetes not feminine and not beautiful enough. This is not weightlifting

[@honesti4217]

this comment is so ignorant🤦🏽‍♀️ . you dont have to be “feminine enough” or “beautiful enough” . please go educate yourself .

@@honesti4217 с учетом, что все американские спортсменки мужеподобны, то места им в женственных видах спорта проста нет. Братья Williams хороши в теннисе, но где уж им в синхронном плаванье.
