Swimming became a competitive sport in the early 1800s.Now swimming is the third most watched sport in the Olympic games.
That multi-celled animals exist. Without evolution we'd just be strands of RNA swimming or blowing about.
If you are talking about humans, it it genetics, if you are talking about animals, it is the evolution of genetics, and I guess you could say their feet became webbed for swimming.
By the most notable contributor to the evolution of the sport would had to have been the late Doc Councilman.
Fish are well suited to swimming in water, for that is their environment. Fish in general are an excellent example of convergent evolution - where many species tend to the one body plan. Even the penguins approach this form.
Update: so I was using this glitch for infinite animals on sonic adventure 2, and I got my chao's swimming level to 99, but it wasn't old enough to do a second evolution. Can I just keep giving it swimming animals and make it a swim/swim Chao? Or will I have to choose something else?
Yes, seals and dolphins are examples of convergent evolution. Despite having different ancestors, they have evolved similar streamlined body shapes, flippers, and adaptations for swimming in their aquatic environments. This convergence is a result of facing similar environmental pressures in their habitats.

Convergent evolution is the process by which unrelated organisms evolve similar traits or structures in response to similar selection pressures in their environment. This results in analogous structures that serve similar functions despite not being derived from a common ancestor. Examples include the wings of bats and birds for flight, or the streamlined bodies of sharks and dolphins for efficient swimming.
Parallel evolution: two (or more) species or genera that evolve in similar ways over time. Divergent evolution: two or more closely related species or genera that evolve to become quite different from one another. Convergent evolution: two or more unrelated and dissimilar species or genera that evolve to become similar to one another, for example penguins (birds that used to fly), dolphins (mammals that used to walk on land) and fish (animals that were always swimming)
no, swimming is a real sport, syncronised swimming isn't
Micro-evolution is not only a part of macro-evolution, it is the same mechanism as macro-evolution. Macro-evolution includes speciation, as a result of continuing micro-evolution.
