La Natación Sincronizada forma parte del programa olímpico desde 1984. Hasta 1992 se disputaban las pruebas de solo y dúo, pero en 1996 se suprimieron estas dos pruebas y fueron remplazadas por la de conjuntos, en la que cada equipo cuenta con ocho nadadoras. La prueba de dúo se volvió a instaurar en el 2000.

* In 1992, one of the judges made a mistake when showing the score, which avoided Fréchette's victory. The judge was not allowed to change the score and Babb was the official winner. After several reclamations, in October 1993, Fréchette was awarded a gold medal and Babb was allowed to retain hers as well.
En 1992, hubo un error por parte de una de las jueces a la hora de mostrar la puntuación de Fréchette, lo que impidió una posible victoria suya. En un principio, la reclamación canadiense fue desestimada y Babb era oficialmente la vencedora. Tras varios meses de lucha, una nueva reclamación fue aceptada por la federación internacional (FINA) en octubre de 1993 y Fréchette y Babb fueron declaradas ganadoras.
