The incident was meant for the purpose of the solo assignment of the synchronization. Alvarez asked for a hair dryer and for a long time near the floor of the bathroom.
Hair coach Andrea Fuentes twijfelde geen moment. De meervoudig olympic medal winnares dook haar pupil achterna. Same with a man from the toernooiorganisatie, which also in the water was sprang, and the toegesnelde medical service helped zij Alvarez near the kant. “I can jump in the water, you want to avoid it,” says Andrea Fuentes about the distance between the Spaanse sportkrant MARCA.
Alvarez was soon aware that there was a halfway around the area. Het flauwvallen was stress relieved and overwhelmed by hair all over again. In 2021, the 25-year-old Alvarez passed the tide of a qualification for the Olympic Games. “Anita put zichzelf helemaal uit tijdens haar oefeningen”, declared haar moeder toen.
“It was scary,” says Fuentes gisteren na het incident. “De schrik zat he went in want Anita ademde niet. It’s nice to say he’s good. Tomorrow (vandaag, red.) We’ll have to wait until the end of the day before the team finals.”
Also on the tribunes was the fear. A great deel van de Amerikaanse fans and de federatie stoned in tears toe te kijken terwijl Alvarez uit het water gehaald.
Het WK will last until today.
