Brazil was very, very close to securing the gold medal at the US Open Synchronized Swimming, held in Cleveland, Ohio (United States).

Rubro-Negro Michelle Frota, the only official representative of CRFlamengo in the competition, which is considered one of the most important and difficult in the sport, won second place in the floor event.

Michelle enchanted everyone with her charisma and red-and-black spirit. In the technical floor exercise, which accounts for 50% of the points, the Brazilian scored 40.471. In the free floor exercise, Michelle scored 40.083.

Last Friday (July 18th), Michelle finished second in the preliminary round of the US Open. On Saturday, the red-and-black proved her strength by repeating her good performance and securing the silver medal with a score of 7.

In first place was Lauren Robinson of the Cincinnati Synchrogators with 83.833.
