Reports indicated that Alonso narrowly missed qualifying for the women's 100m butterfly semi-final by just 0.24 seconds. However, her conduct off the pool deck reportedly created tension within Team Paraguay, prompting Larissa Schaerer, head of the Paraguayan Olympic Committee, to request her departure. Schaerer emphasised that Alonso chose not to stay in the Athletes' Village and thanked her for complying with the instructions. The situation left Paraguayan officials disappointed and concerned about the team’s morale.
