In the wake of an uninspiring performance at the Paris Olympics, major leadership changes are coming at USA Swimming, sources tell Sports Illustrated. CEO Tim Hinchey and national team manager Lindsay Mintenko are expected to leave the organization in the near future, though nothing has yet been formally announced.
The United States won more swimming medals than any other country (28) and more golds (eight), but those numbers fall short of what have become standard American Olympic performances. It was the fewest U.S. swimming golds since 1988 and fewest total medals since 2004, and there are three more events in the Olympic program now than there were then.
