It was close in the end, but congrats to Exactly. Had the judges penalize Mexico as they should in round three and five, then medals could have end very different. That last dive from Mexico was terrible, it was like they just threw it all to the wind, and pray jduges just give them the gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get how the scoring system works. I know the judges are free to score the dives, but some attempts were absolutely terrible and still got 7 and 8 marks. How is this possible? I've tried to enjoy diving all my life, but the Pan Ams always show how insane this sport is in terms of scoring. I'll stick with gymnastics. mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangeman 1,367 Posted August 5, 2019 #73 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Hilarious, they play "Shake it off" after Hixon's dive after he missed the one the round before. mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's the form of the sound control guy to show his support. Meanwhile after Morales & Capobianco meltdown in round 3, there are great chances for Gagné and Knight Wisdom to end with the Olympic quota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only Canadian song they played was Informer by Snow, but it was after the Dominican guy. They did play Call Me Maybe at the baseball field, though. Cheering for Knight-Wisdom, and Gagne of course. mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrv86 2,934 Posted August 5, 2019 #77 Share Posted August 5, 2019 First 6 with good chances for podium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangeman 1,367 Posted August 5, 2019 #78 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Glad Gagne is still in 1st, but he's going to have to do much better to stay there. Still anyone in the top 7's gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrv86 2,934 Posted August 5, 2019 #79 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Celaya overscored, that was a 6.5-7.0... he went to forward and only partially save it in the end orangeman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still anyone in the top 7's gold. I was checking the dive list... that 3.1 in this round won't favour him much, with Knight-Wisdom, Celaya and Restrepo on the hunt.
