Today the men’s individual springboard will continue and conclude, with both the semifinals and finals taking place. Semis will take place at 9 am local time, and the top twelve divers will advance into finals tonight at 5pm local time.
The preliminaries were plagued by testing wind conditions. Many divers stopped on the board and even requested re-dives due to the weather. Hopefully the wind will die down not only for the rest of the springboard events, but for the upcoming platform events. Wind that divers are finding harsh on three-meter could be detrimental to a ten-meter performance.
Americans Kristian Ipsen and Mike Hixon are both advancing into the semifinals. Ipsen is sitting in third place after a fantasticly consistent showing despite the weather conditions.
