fwiw Oliver Dingley lives and trains in  and has done since before the last Olympics

 

It is wild that Ireland now has a diving team!

Yes, he and his coach relocated to Dublin to train after he had competed for England in the 2014 Commonwealth Games. One of his grandparents is Irish so he probably has some relatives in the country.

Thats not too disappointing that our divers couldnt qualify once again (last time when we had diver at Olympics it was Barcelona 92') but sad after even good performance in 3m synchro

Official, no chance for Lesiak. 

I wonder if I will see once in my lifetime our diver in Olympics...

[Makedonas 2,239]

Despite not qualifying any divers for the second consecutive Olympics, I am confident that we will have divers in Paris 2024. All three of the guys we sent here were very young (19-21 years old) and the best is yet to come for sure! They will be more ready in three years

Pity that Marić has lost form in recent years, I hope she continues and tries to qualify for Paris 2024.

We have had some other divers, but unfortunately they all disappeared and stopped competing at some point (Boric, Melsa and Brezovac).

You may be joking, but the judges were not. Except for his 4th and 6th round dives, every other execution was far from the notes awarded. Same case for Goodfellow, today he wasn't as clean as yesterday, yet he was not penalized as he should when he failed, especially during the last dive.

 

The opposite was the case for Down-Jenkins  who saw of his executions undeservedly scores.

 

BTW, congratulations to García Boissier  for making it to the finals. He had very clean executions, and if not for the degree of difficulty, he could very well challenge for a medal.

judging has been a bit weird and biased, if you watch the failed dives from russians, canadians, brits you see they still get 6.00 or even 7.00!! compared to other nations (including Mexico) that if misses a dive or an entrance and the string of 5 or below shows with no mercy
