Synchronised Swimming 2020 Tokyo Olympic Review

Duet

Kolesnichenko/Romashina (Russia) led qualification by over three points. They scored over 97 points in both the free and technical routines, with no one else managing to score 97 in either discipline. Xuechen/Wenyan (China) came closest, posting a 96.233. Heading into the final the real battle looked like bronze, with Fiedina/Savchuk (Ukraine) edging Inui/Yoshida (Japan) in qualification by only 1.5. In the final, the Russians improved their free score to 98.800. The other teams in the top four would also increase their score, but not enough for any movement in positions.

As always, Russia was a step ahead of its opponents here. The order that the nine teams finished in the technical was exactly repeated with the scoring in the scoring in the free routine. Russia had the victory by over 2.5 ahead of China, a further 3.2 points ahead of Ukraine.
