The 2024 Paris Olympics have encountered significant controversies, particularly in swimming events. Team GB swimmer Luke Greenbank faced disqualification due to a rule violation, despite having the fastest time in the heats, leaving him devastated. Brazilian swimmer Ana Carolina Vieira was expelled from the Olympics after sneaking out with her teammate and lover, while her partner received only a warning, raising questions about the fairness of the disciplinary actions. Additionally, there were concerns about the pool's depth, with reports of a security mishap draining water levels, leading some athletes to claim the pool is 'slow.' Despite these challenges, swimmer Pan Zhanle from China set a new record in the 100m freestyle, showcasing the competitive spirit of the games. Overall, the Olympics are not only highlighting athletic talent but also the complex social dynamics and rules that govern the event.
