Gianlu33 3,570 Posted July 18, 2019 #113 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Laugher just destroy an amazing race 30.60 on the last dive and it's only bronze, what drama Function CR Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlympicsFan 782 Posted July 18, 2019 #114 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Awesome choke by Laugher! With a good last jump he could've set a new world record and even with an average jump he could've easily won the gold medal. Still i think he shouldn't be completely sad about this competition. Looking at the advantage he had over the chinese guys before the last jump i would say that it will be very hard for the chinese guys to catch up to him until Tokyo. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,179 Posted July 20, 2019 #120 Share Posted July 20, 2019 FINA probably did something indeed. It's a very bad image for the sport if someone wins all dozen events. Interestingly, artistic swimming and diving are probably the only Olympic sports with 10+ medal events where a gold medal sweep is possible. Makes you wonder. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
