Any experts here? Is it worth laying the fav Bo Qiu currently @ 1.32? The only reasons being that any 1 mistake costs you the entire final.

Poor start from Tom. He's asking for a re-dive.

Report Makybe_Diva • August 11, 2012 8:42 PM BST

He can re-dive.

Put your cameras away

Stands a chance if he gets twice as many goes as anyone else

Report treble • August 11, 2012 8:45 PM BST

Do you reckon it really did put him off or just an excuse?

Report Makybe_Diva • August 11, 2012 8:49 PM BST

I think it would have put him off.

Hope he gets a Bronze. I'm not hopeful of anything higher.

Report Glossy • August 11, 2012 8:49 PM BST

Of course it puts him off. Pretty hard to know when to extend if you can't see where the pool is mid-dive. Crowd are told to turn off flashes before the diving starts. No excuse for the morons in the arena.

Report treble • August 11, 2012 8:49 PM BST

Yeah, those Chinese lads are a bit special.

Come on Tom. No medal of these games would make me happier. Poor lad's been through the mill these past few years.

Agreed, really hope he gets a medal.

Yes, I saw the documentary. Very emotional stuff.

A medal for Tom would be marvellous.

The minor problem is we see the scores about 10secs after audience, so you just have to go by the cheers
