The 2015 FINA World Masters Championships feature not only oldtimers but also athletes who are young enough to compete in the main tournament. The competitors show their best and strain every effort to get the desirable podium spot.

A popular Russian TV presenter visited the FINA Water World Park the day before. The journalist arrived in Kazan after a long business trip, so it was the first time she was attending the FINA Worlds. Churikova awarded the best volunteers at the FINA Water World Park and attended the Closing Ceremony of the 16th FINA World Championships.

The 16th FINA World Championships are coming to the logical conclusion tonight. However, it does not mean that sports fans will say farewell to sporting events. The World Masters Championships get well underway.

Every single second is vitally crucial not only in professional sport competitions. Masters tournament competitors are doing their best as well that’s why the results they usually achieve sometimes seem to be alike.

Olga Milenina, the Masters synchro swimming gold medallist, sat down for an interview with a reporter of the Kazan 2015 OC’s Press Office and told whether it is easy or not to compete as an athlete after being a referee for a while, about the role a Greek singer played in her performance and how she stays remarkably fit at the age of 74.

Despite their age, the majority of Masters tournament competitors dedicate quite a lot of time to daily sports practices. Helmut Hertelendy of Germany, the open water swim champion in the 65-69 age group, talked about how sport is still important in his life.

The three-time Olympic synchronised swimming champion told about how to achieve success in synchro swimming competitions and how the Masters athletes get prepared.

The final day of the synchronised swimming tournament ended with the team competition.
