That and the fact that Paola Pineda is not on the same level, really made it difficult from the start of the "free" rounds. I'm not even sure any of the individual women will qualify tomorrow, but let's see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa Maciel 1,368 Posted February 8 #193 Share Posted February 8 Hopefully this won't be a jinx, but Tom Daley hasn't scored less than 8.5 from any judge across his 5 rounds of dives. Safe to say he is well and truly back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafa Maciel 1,368 Posted February 8 #194 Share Posted February 8 With 1 round to go, and should be pretty safe for a quota. The other 2 should be shared between or . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, the last athlete with a mathematical chance would be Emmanuel Vazquez, but I doubt anyone past Frandiel Gomez makes it.

Wang Zongyuan is pretty much nailed on to do both synchro and individual, whilst Siyi Xie is likely to be favourite to get the nod for the second individual spot. The only question then is whether Xie doubles up in the synchro but given Zongyuan and Daoyi are well established pairing, I can see the team replicating their 2012 and 2016 approach and taking 3 athletes. For , Joules Bouyer and Alexis Jandard will likely take the synchro spot and I'd be 90%+ certain that Bouyer will also be in the individual. When it comes to the second spot, Jandard will need to fight it out against Bisch. With , we have our established synchro pairing of Laugher and Harding and that won't change as we go forward to Paris. Laugher is also likely to take one of the individual spots. Competition for the second individual spot will probably be among the most intense in the diving squad with at least 3-4 names very much in the mix. At this point, I'd say it is more likely than not that we will use 3 quotas in this event. Finally, for , the depth of their squad always makes it difficult to guess what their team will look like but again, I think it is likely they'll end up with 3 athletes on springboard. I don't think we should read too much into their results from Doha - they already had the full set of quotas from Fukuoka so didn't really need to peak for this week. Looking across the last three OG even the teams with the greatest strength in depth haven't taken more than 12 divers to fill the 16 quotas freeing up spots for others.

Topicmaster1010 2,455 Posted February 8 #200 Share Posted February 8 (edited) Complete disaster for Canada in the women's 3m events. That means that one of the individual 2022 silver medallist or the individual 2023 bronze medallist will miss the games.
