TOKYO, Aug 4 ― National diver Pandelela Rinong can thank her lucky stars to still be in contention for a medal at the end of the preliminary round of the women’s 10-metre platform individual event at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics todayWhile Pandelela just managed to sneak into the semi-finals as the 18th ― and final ― qualifier, Jun Hoong’s Tokyo Olympic mission ended in dismal fashion as she came in 26th position out of 30 divers at the Tokyo Aquatics Centre here.
As for 2017 world champion Jun Hoong, she paid the price for two poor opening dives, with the 31-year-old recording scores of 36.00 and 34.80 respectively, thus ending her medal hopes in her third Olympics since the 2012 London edition. As expected, China’s Chen Yuxi and Quan Hongchan dominated the event to claim the top two spots while American Delaney Schnell finished third.
