How Does the Paris Olympic Swimming Schedule Work?
There are two parts to the Olympic swimming schedule for these games. The pool events are being run similar to the 2012 Olympics. The preliminary rounds go in the morning. The semifinal and final sessions run in the evening and night sessions to maximize the American viewing audience based on the NBC contract with the IOC. As a result, there are nine days of events vice eight to allow for a less-compressed schedule for swimmers participating in multiple events.
