Diving at the Aquatics WA World Championships 2024


Recommended Posts

In what has been an otherwise fairly decent World Champs so far from an organisation point of view, World Aquatics really need to do something about managing the diving start lists - having 70 athletes competing is beyond ridiculous.

:GBR Jack Laugher with a 0 in round 4. Thankfully Ross Haslam looks like he has done enough to get through to the semi-final and a likely Olympic quota.

Jack is not having a wonderful meet. But Haslem has dived really well for being the GBR number three really

the French swimming federation announced that the 2 French people are qualified for the Olympic games which means that all the semi-finalists are qualified

Ireland is not as confident. Their post stated Jake Passmore (17th in qualifying) had a chance of an Olympic spot in tomorrows semi final

By his standards I'd agree - Laugher would probably expect to be in the medals in the synchro and in the final in the individual as a minimum - but it's pretty amazing to think that with only 5 counting dives, he was only 8 or 9 points away from a place in the semi-finals. Excluding the Chinese (who could probably make a semi with only 4 counting dives), there's not many divers in the world who could get that close.

Looks like some national federations have interpreted the qualification document as requiring an absolute top 12 finish to secure the quota whilst others are interpreting the requirement as being in the top 12 of athletes not already qualified.

 

In the end it will all be the same - it just means that some countries are celebrating earlier than others. Hopefully World Aquatics will take it into account when they draft the qualification document for LA.

For me, the amount of athletes isn’t the problem, but more so the fact that qualification lasts multiple hours. Hard for the divers to keep focused on their competition when they have to wait 40 minutes in between dives. What I’d probably do is sort the athletes into two groups, and do one group after another. But that’s just me :dunno:

    • It’s simply the only skating event where jumps don’t matter, only choreography. And how much you bribe the judges matters too.
    • Can’t say I understand how scoring works in ice dance, the rest are easy to determine how good of a score based off spins during jumps

    • Not the biggest fan of figure skating especially with what has happened this season but since it’s the Olympics I guess I’m watching 
    • Czech Euroeport commentator: wow I see there only 9 pairs starting, Korea probably thought they have no chances and decided to not send a pair here, what a dumb move   omfg... I know for being a sport announcer you not need any special requirements, but I think having some basic infos about the event you are going to comment should be fine to have at least
    • Don't know if other nations' media have picked this up, but here in  the aerodynamics of ski jumping are a question.of fascination.  Or one particular aspect of it.   The World Anti-Doping Agency could investigate if evidence emerges that male ski jumpers are injecting their penises in a bid to improve sporting performance.   In January, German newspaper Bild, external reported that jumpers were injecting their penises with hyaluronic acid before being measured for their suits     https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/czej70jyg4eo
