    Australia's women's 4x100m freestyle team set a new Olympic record of 3:33.15 in the Aquatics Centre at the London 2012 Olympic Games (28 July).
    The team from Netherlands won silver in the event with the USA team winning bronze.
    Swimming has featured on the programme of all editions of the Games since 1896. The very first Olympic events were freestyle (crawl) or breaststroke. Backstroke was added in 1904.
    In the 1940s, breaststrokers discovered that they could go faster by bringing both arms forward over their heads. This practice was immediately forbidden in breaststroke, but gave birth to butterfly, whose first official appearance was at the 1956 Games in Melbourne. This style is now one of the four strokes used in competition.
    Women's swimming became Olympic in 1912 at the Stockholm Games. Since then, it has been part of every edition of the Games. The men's and women's programmes are almost identical, as they contain the same number of events, with only one difference: the freestyle distance is 800 metres for women and 1,500 metres for men.

    The problem with the USA team is that they always include a swimmer in the wrong position or a swimmer who doesn't deserve a place in the relay. Here the mistake was to include Missy Franklin, a backstroker swimmer in a sprint relay? That's wrong. In the men's 4x100 freestyle the mistake was incluiding Lochte in the anchor leg, he should have gone first or second, but not in anchor. And in Rio 2016, the mistake was to include Ledecky in the 4x100 freestyle relay. In the trials in Omaha she failed to qualify for the single event, event for the relay, she ended in 8th position, and they included in the final relay. That's very stupid

    • @horstborscht7401
      @horstborscht7401 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sounds like an appetite for including the star of the meet at all costs. In the 4×200 m freestyle relay they did the right thing by choosing DiRado over Franklin, though.

      @danielcavalier711 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    their punishment was basically a lot of hate and controversy from the press, plus I think they may have been banned from competitions for 5 months or something like that. Their punishment was more based on their behaviour though because they misused it and went round knocking on peoples doors and making prank calls.
