Why do swimmers wear two swim caps?

I've been a swimmer for as long as I can remember. I can tell you that most swimmers wear two caps for a good reason. I wear two caps for big meets, the first one I put on with my goggles over it, and I put the second cap over the first one and my goggles so that my goggles don't fall off, and it creates less drag. Also, this way the goggles don't tangle and knot my hair.
