Anisley García
Havana, May 10 (JIT).- Below-expected results were achieved today by Cubans Anisley García and Prisis Leidy Ruiz in the three-meter springboard test, corresponding to the international diving competition that will examine the facility that will host this event. sport at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
The 217.50 points achieved by Anisley and the 208.85 on Prisis' account left the feeling that they had an erratic day in that modality, now dominated by the Australian Maddison Keeney thanks to her accumulated 337.35 units.
«They really weren't good at all. We will talk to them later to have greater certainty of what could have happened. They presented too many failures, especially in the third jump of each program,” national commissioner Milagros González told JIT from headquarters.
In that position of the program, Anisley executes the jump of three and a half turns to the front in position c and her scores were between two and 2.5 points, something unusual at the highest level.
More unfortunate was the presentation of Prisis, who develops the same number of laps, but in position b. Her grade in that performance averaged 1.5, although one of the judges gave her 0.5 marks.
The podium of the test was completed by the Chinese Yani Chan (320.40) and the Japanese Mikami Sayaka (302.85). Anisley placed 13th and her partner one step lower.
Anisley's foray into the platform's individual call is scheduled for this Friday, which, as happened on the springboard, will not have a qualifying segment.
Several of the figures with tickets to the nearby contest under the five rings gathered at the Paris Aquatic Complex, taking place in the French capital between July 26 and until August 11.
The Cuban divers are waiting for World Aquatics to certify their presence in that competition, through the latest update of the qualifying ranking scheduled for the month of June.
Thanks to their performances in the most recent global water sports competition, held in Doha, both appear with very good options to obtain the desired tickets.
Anisley must win the place on the platform, while Prisis opts for a place among the contestants on the springboard from three meters.
