On the afternoon of February 2, Beijing time, the World Aquatics Championships will officially kick off in Doha, Qatar. The 16-day event attracted the attention of the world's top swimmers and enthusiasts. The competition covers six events: diving, synchronized swimming, open water swimming, water polo, swimming and high diving, which can be described as a feast of water sports.
The diving event at the World Championships in Doha is an important stop on the road to the Paris Olympics for many athletes. As for the Chinese diving team, they have already won the full quota for the Olympic Games at the World Championships in Fukuoka last year, so this trip to Doha is more about training with competitions to maintain a good competitive condition.
The Chinese diving team performed well at last year's World Championships in Fukuoka, winning 12 of the 13 gold medals. At the World Championships in Doha, they "tactically" abandoned the women's 1m springboard and mixed doubles 3m springboard competitions because these two events are non-Olympic events. However, in order to train young players and increase their experience in the competition, they still sent Zheng Jiuyuan to participate in the men's 1-meter springboard competition, and Zhang Jiaqi and Huang Jianjie to compete in the mixed doubles 10-meter platform.
In the women's 10-meter platform event, Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi's strength is at the first-class level, and the competition between the two is becoming more and more fierce. The key to victory or defeat is who can play more consistently in the game. Quan Hongchan has many fans in China, and her performance has always attracted much attention. At the World Championships in Doha, she will once again challenge for the women's 10m platform championship.
Fans who like Quan Hongchan should pay attention to the 2024 FINA World Championships (Diving) Women's 10-meter platform final will be held at 23:30 Beijing time on February 5.
