10m final at the World Championships Semifinal 16th place
North Korea's Kim Mi-rae advances to finals in 3rd place
Kim Na-hyeon (21, Gangwon Provincial Office) failed to advance to the finals of the women's 10m platform diving event at the 2024 International Aquatics Federation World Championships.
Na-Hyeon Kim scored a total of 250.95 points in the 1st to 5th periods in the women's 10m platform diving competition held at the Hamad Aquatic Center in Doha, Qatar on the 5th, placing her in 16th place out of 18 people.
With this, Na-Hyun Kim missed out on a ticket to the finals, which is given to the top 12 finishers in her semifinals.
Kim Na-hyun, who received 275.45 points in the preliminaries held on the 4th and ranked 16th overall and advanced to the semifinals of the top 18, failed to advance to the finals as she only ranked 16th in the semifinals.
Kim Na-hyeon, who was in 12th place until the 4th period, attempted the 5253B exercise with a difficulty level of 3.2 in the 5th period, which consisted of two and a half laps in a twisting motion and one and a half laps in a pike position with both arms holding the legs with the legs straight. I made a mistake and only got 33.60 points. She also dropped to 16th in the rankings.
The 12 athletes from their countries who advanced to the finals of this event were awarded the right to participate in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
In diving, the right to participate in the Paris Olympics is given to the National Olympic Committee (NOC), not to individual athletes.
Korea's opportunity to participate in the women's 10m platform at the Paris Olympics has not disappeared altogether.
The International Aquatics Federation divided the Paris Olympics qualifications into 12 spots for the 2023 Fukuoka World Championships, up to 5 spots for each continental championship, and 12 spots for the Doha World Championships.
However, as the number of individual event participants per country is limited to two, there is a way to receive a qualification even if you are not among the top 12 teams at the World Championships.
In the day's semifinals, North Korea's Kim Mirae placed third with 325.20 points, giving her home country a berth to the Paris Olympics.
Chen Yuxi (China), who is attempting to win her fourth consecutive title in the women's 10m platform at the World Championships, ranked first with 421.85 points and won a ticket to the finals.
Quan Hongchan (China), the gold medalist in this event at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, ranked second with 405.30 points.
The finals of this event will be held on the 6th. 사설토토
