No - but that's primarily because they aren't separate events in the Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right to say they would have won silver in the Olympics if things had been in the same format? Edited February 8 by Dragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The duet field in Doha wasn't as strong as it will be in Paris - there were no Austrians, Japanese or Americans so it's difficult to read too much into it. That being said, I'd say that they should very much be in the mix for the minor medals. mpjmcevoy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussB 41 Posted February 8 #34 Share Posted February 8 My mistake - Paris official site lists events, not medal events. As a sport I will admit knowing very little about, are no team capable of challenging the Chinese in Paris in the duet similar to most of the diving events?

I don't find it very viewer friendly and I rely on the commentators to make sense of what is going on. If we look at last year's WC results, scored 504.6579 across the 2 events. scored 523.4667 and scored combined 495.97. As the teams have gotten more comfortable with the new points code the teams seem to be scoring better - scored combined 516.8213 this year.
