LSC\u2019s in Arkansas, Maine, Oregon, and Southern California are all reviewing the current policies related to the suits. The suits have been seen by many as a deterrent to families joining USA Swimming because of the high cost of the suits. USA Swimming is currently working with an outside consultant to review the policies being explored by various LSC\u2019s in order to help understand the different approaches as the trend continues. An objective report presenting options for development of future policies should be done by November.

The 2024 Games were awarded to Paris, France, while the 2028 Games were awarded to Los Angeles, California. That brings the Summer Games to the United States for the first time since 1984, which incidentally was also the last time that Los Angeles hosted the Olympics. The city had also hosted 1932 Olympic Games. Paris has also twice been the host of the Summer Olympics in 1900 and 1924. Both cities had originally been in contention for the 2024 bid, but given the strength of both candidate cities and the mounting costs of hosting a successful Games the IOC came to an agreement to award each city hosting duties. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>The Week That Was #2 &#8211; Lochte Makes Return To Competition At US Open<\/b><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_253934\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ryan-lochte-returns-with-new-love\/ryan-lochte-43\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-253934\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-253934\" data-attachment-id=\"253934\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ryan-lochte-returns-with-new-love\/ryan-lochte-43\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ryan-lochte.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"720,500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ryan-lochte\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;1\/12\/19&lt;br \/&gt;\n6\/18\/18&lt;br \/&gt;\n7\/18\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\n5\/3\/17 &#038; 6\/14\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\nryan-lochte&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Griffin Scott&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ryan-lochte-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ryan-lochte.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-253934\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/ryan-lochte-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"ryan-lochte\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-253934\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Griffin Scott<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 2017 US Open Championships were underway this week at the Nassau Aquatics Center in East Meadow, NY.
