Still no medals for US Diving
Chris Colwill and Jevon Tarantino finished fourth in the 3-meter synchronized springboard event on Wednesday, narrowly missing a medal for the United States.
China won another gold, with Russia winning the silver and Ukraine claiming bronze.
Wang Feng and Qin Kai scored 469.08 points to win China's fourth gold in diving. Russia's Dmitry Sautin and Yuriy Kunakov finished a distant second at 421.98. Illya Kvasha and Oleksiy Prygorov of Ukraine edged the U.S. team for the bronze with 415.05 points.
"I'm a little discouraged, but at the same time, this has been an awesome experience," Tarantino said. "It was a great competition, and we did everything we could. I just went a little short of vertical on that last dive, and I think that was just me wanting it so much."
Diving competition takes a break Thursday and resumes Friday with women's 3-meter preliminaries.
