One of the most popular sports in Olympics is swimming. There are events in butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, freestyle, individual medley and relays.
Diving is another popular Olympic sport which involves diving from a platform or springboard while performing acrobatics.
Synchronized swimming is a fun sport to watch that combines swimming, dance and gymnastics. It can consist of solos, duets, trios, combos, or teams.
Did you know underwater swimming used to be a sport in the Olympics? It was held at the 1900 Olympics games in Paris. Underwater cameras could make this an interesting sport to see in modern day.
I love going swimming even though I have never tried competitive swimming. I taught myself how to swim when I was little. I love swimming in open water such as in the ocean.
Do you like swimming? What events do you watch on the Olympics?
