Team Greece’s synchronized swimming team is receiving a ton of attention during the 2024 Paris Olympics, but it has nothing to do with the current squad.
The Greece team from more than years ago is going insanely viral over one erotic picture.
Greece’s synchronized swimming team competed at the 2013 World Aquatics Championships in Barcelona, Spain, in July and August 2013.
Over a decade later, that team is going viral — most notably, one member of the team — after a picture showed one woman being held upside down with her right and left legs separated while rocking her leotard.
The Greek swimmer’s leotard was so tight and the color was so close to her skin tone that it made for a very erotic picture.

Women’s Sports Uniforms Have Long Been A Major Controversy Well Before Greece’s Unfortunate Photo
At least once every four years, a controversy erupts over female athletes’ sports apparel, as we have seen during the current 2024 Olympics.
Team Greece from 2013 is a stark reminder that women are being provided minimal clothing when trying to perform their respective sports.
Nike’s reveal of one 2024 Team USA Olympic track and field garnered a ton of negative reactions due to the enormous high hip cut and lack of crotch coverage.
Some female athletes voiced outrage, pointing out the personal grooming necessary to pull off the look.
