Open water swimmers enter the water for the start of the women’s 10K marathon swim in the Rio Olympics at Fort Copacabana. The Netherlands’ Sharon van Rouwendaal captured the gold medal and was named Swimming World Magazine’s 2016 Female Open Water Swimmer of the Year. A Dutch swimmer was also named the male SOY—Ferry Weertman—who along with van Rouwendaal, became the first swimmers from the same country to sweep Olympic gold medals in Olympic swimming’s longest race.
