Competition format

edit

The competition was held in three rounds:

  • Preliminary round: All divers performed five dives; the top 18 divers advanced to the semi-final.
  • Semi-final: The scores of the preliminary round were erased. The 18 remaining divers performed five dives each, and the top 12 divers advanced to the final.
  • Final: The semi-final scores were erased. The 12 final divers performed five dives each, and the top three divers win the gold, silver and bronze medals respectively.

Within each round of five dives, at least one dive had to be from each of the five groups (forward, back, reverse, inward, and twisting). Each dive was assigned a degree of difficulty based on somersaults, position, twists, approach, and entry. There was no limit to the degree of difficulty of dives; the most difficult dives calculated in the FINA rulebook (reverse 4 12 somersault in pike position and back 4 12 somersault in pike position) are 4.7, but competitors could have attempted more difficult dives. Scoring was done by a panel of seven judges. For each dive, each judge gave a score between 0 and 10 with 0.5 point increments. The top two and bottom two scores were discarded. The remaining three scores were summed and multiplied by the degree of difficulty to give a dive score. The five dive scores were summed to give the score for the round.
