Kromowidjojo visiting the pope

- Ranomi Kromowidjojo, with many other swimmers in the Vatican, met Pope Franciscus. 'Water is alive and without water there is no life,' the Pope said in a speech against the swimmers, including Femke Heemskerk.

'By contact with the water you will learn to flush away everything that is polluted, both in sports and in life,' the Pope added.

The pope received the necessary gifts, including a bathing hat with the text Pope Franciscus.
