We all have seen images where some athletes don\u2019t make it to the finish line and others help them to get there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur sport is no different than others, just in a pool, we push through limits and sometimes we find them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnita feels good now and the doctors also say she is okay. Tomorrow she will rest all day and will decide with the doctor if she can swim free team finals or not.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spanish newspaper Marca reported four-time Olympic medallist Fuentes as saying she had jumped in \u201cbecause the lifeguards weren\u2019t doing it\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And speaking to Spanish radio, she said: \u201cIt felt like a whole hour. I said things weren\u2019t right, I was shouting at the lifeguards to get into the water, but they didn\u2019t catch what I said or they didn\u2019t understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShe wasn\u2019t breathing. I went as quickly as I could, as if it were an Olympic final.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alvarez scored 87.6333 points for her routine, finishing seventh in the final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/_125586243_gettyimages-1241456132.jpg\" alt=\"Anita Alvarez is rescued underwater by her coach Andrea Fuentes\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/_125586241_gettyimages-1241456033.jpg\" alt=\"Anita Alvarez is rescued underwater by her coach Andrea Fuentes\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/_125586322_gettyimages-1241456356.jpg\" alt=\"Anita Alvarez is rescued underwater by her coach Andrea Fuentes\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/swimming\/61906249?at_medium=RSS&amp;at_campaign=KARANGA\">Source: BBC<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SEND A STORY:<\/strong>\u00a0Do you have a story for us or need a promotion\/advertisement?
