Only if the diving competition is being held in Bajina Bašta

At least he could do some somersault, unlike these sailors who cant even finish some of the races beacuse they are making beginners mistakes

At least they participate on qualifications. What about diving, synchronized swimming ,equestrian, modern pentathlon, field hockey, bmx, track cycling?

They do but to no avail. Last time at least thew were closer to qualify. Those sports are slowly developing, sailing already has basis.
