Being expelled by one's own country, which has invested in their development, is an extremely rare occurrence, but it has just happened to a 20-year-old swimmer.
Indeed, Luana Alonso, a Paraguayan swimmer, has been expelled from the Olympic Village due to alleged misconduct.
It's clear that she must have committed a serious infraction, but the exact reason for her expulsion is not yet known.
Alonso holds several Paraguayan swimming records and has been competing internationally since her teenage years. However, she did not advance to the semifinals in the 100m butterfly.
Social media is abuzz with speculation about the reasons for her expulsion, and her Instagram account has suddenly gained a lot of attention.
