Diving at the Aquatics FINA World Championships 2019

[mrv86 3,176]

Poor James Heatly... he almost fell of the springboard and had to restart his dive, meaning a 2.0 deduction from each judge score.

 

He then failed the dive horribly, and earned marks no higher than 2.5, with his best three adding 0.5 once deductions were applied  

 

Sadly he is 95% out of the semis

And once again, a competitor has to restart his dive. This time it was Nez Zealand's Anton Down Jenkins. Unlike the Brit, he was able to perform a regular dive and thus his deductions seemed less severe.

Where’s Nez Zealand? Is that where @Wanderer lives?

 Mohab Ishak was really close from qualifying , if only that 3rd attempt which he got 37  this guy finished 4th in a WC in USA this season , i guess he has some good future , but he needs support from our federation at least to participate in some WCs

Yes he has a good future if he gets support from your federation.

 

I really wanted him and Poland's Lesiak to go into semis, but qualifying in men's diving is always cutthroat.

After the prelims I think the following divers will get the quotas for Tokyo:   CAO; XIE; LAUGHER; HAUSDING; DINGLEY; WOO; PACHECO; KUZNETSOV; SHLEIKHER; KOLODIY BOUDIA; HIXON;   Dark Horses: CARTER & IMBEAU-DULAC

Question, since I can't see the competition.

 

How it is possible, that Hausding only gets 56 Points in total for a jump in spite of getting 7.0, 7.5 and 7.5 and the jump having a factor of 3.5?

He restarted the jump after losing balance. Received -2 from each judge.

Some judges gave Korean 6.0 for that jump?! Unbelieveable.
