GB Divers win bronze first in Games – watch how they did it
GB Divers win bronze first in Games
Great Britain have their first medal! Yasmin Harper and Scarlett Mew Jensen claimed the medal saying “We’re so excited, we are so pleased with ourselves”.
The two won Bronze in the 3m synchronised diving with a score of 302.28. It is the first diving medal since 1960. An amazing achievement.
Watch the lovely moment that and Yasmin Harper secured Team GB’s first medal with a bronze in the women’s synchronised 3m springboard.
Scarlett Mew Jensen and Yasmin Harper had it all to do after three rounds: they were down in sixth place, well out of the medals.
But they clawed themselves back to fourth with a solid fourth round and they nailed their final dive, a forward 3.5 somersaults with pike, put the pressure on the Australians, in bronze medal positions and diving a few places afterwards.
And it all went awry at that point for the pairing of Maddison Keeney and Anabelle Smith, who made a complete mess of their final dive. So it’s bronze for Jensen and Harper, matching their placing at this year’s World Championships.
