Tom Daley and Matty Lee of Britain narrowly edged out China to win the 10-metre synchronized diving
on Monday, upsetting favored China and preventing the diving powerhouse from any chance of a golden sweep.
“It wasn’t a perfect performance, but we look at our score and it’s one of our very good ones,” Riendeau said. “We’re coming out with a smile on our face.”“It was a difficult summer, with a lot of obstacles, but we surmounted them and finished strong,” added Zsombor-Murray, who is 18. When asked if he felt a pang in realizing he was diving competitively for the last time, Riendeau said he “wasn’t that emotional.”
