The event runs through Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Alvarez, a 2016 Olympian, and Woroniecki were named to the national squad late last year, and USA Synchro CEO <strong>Myriam Glez<\/strong> says the new duet\u2019s synchronization and endurance are already in fine form.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re looking good, especially in the technical routine. The goal has been to get this new pair ready\u00a0for their first competition,\u201d Glez said. \u201cObviously it is the beginning of the season so\u00a0they\u00a0need more work, but they are doing a great job. They will have more time to take these\u00a0routines to the next level before the China Open and Japan Open.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alvarez made her Olympic debut last August in Rio, finishing ninth in duet with two-time Olympian <strong>Mariya Koroleva<\/strong>. Woroniecki has international experience during her stints on U.S. junior national teams, having competed in Canada, China and Russia. This will be her first as a member of the senior national squad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese two athletes have different strengths and weaknesses. Victoria is taller than Anita, and she makes the pair look bigger\u00a0in the water,\u201d Glez said. \u201cShe also has great propulsion and power, and therefore it helps with the stamina throughout the routine and makes them look powerful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The French Open is the first leg of the inaugural FINA World Series of Synchronized Swimming. The World Series will integrate existing smaller synchro events from all over the world, with each leg staged in conjunction with existing national opens and competitions. The 2017 circuit will include a total of seven events.<\/p>\n<p>The Synchro America Open, the only international synchronized swimming event held in the U.S., will be included in the World Series. The Synchro America Open will be held June 21-24 at the Nassau County Aquatic Center in East Meadow, N.Y.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe FINA World Series is\u00a0inspired by other sports like diving and swimming,\u201d Glez said. \u201cThis is great for synchro because it encourages\u00a0more countries to participate in more competitions throughout the season. The goal is also to formalize the\u00a0synchronized swimming competition schedule and to\u00a0better market\u00a0our sport.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2017 Calendar for FINA World Series<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Make Up For Ever French Open (Paris), March 10-12<\/p>\n<p>China Open (Taiyuan, China), April 22-24<\/p>\n<p>Japan Open (Tokyo), April 28-30<\/p>\n<p>Canada Open (Toronto), May 2-7<\/p>\n<p>Spain Open (TBD), May 26-28<\/p>\n<p>Synchro America Open (East Meadow, N.Y.), June 22-24<\/p>\n<p>Suv Parisi (Tashkent, Uzbekistan), August (dates TBD)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Commentary by Dax Lowry, Swimming World Contributor Anita Alvarez (Kenmore, N.Y.) and Victoria Woroniecki (Palm Coast, Fla.), members of the U.S. Synchronized Swimming\u00a0National Squad, are set to make their debut<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4874,"featured_media":239890,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[14],"tags":[57969,1913,57959,41655,60243],"class_list":["post-245173","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-synchronized-swimming","tag-anita-alvarez","tag-french-open","tag-synchro","tag-synchronized-swimming-2","tag-victoria-woroniecki"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) -
