Canada’s mixed diving team captured a bronze medal at Montreal World Cup on Friday night.<\/p>\n

Mia Vallee, Nathan Zsombor-Murray, Katelyn Fung and Matt Cullen were third with 448.80 points.<\/p>\n

But it came down to the team’s final dive in the 10-metre synchro. Fung and Cullen scored 76.80 to all but secure a medal for Canada with 448.80 points overall.<\/p>\n

“It was stressful,” Cullen said. “We had the last word and that put a little pressure on Katelyn and me.<\/p>\n

“I think we handled this pressure well. We managed to make a good dive and get a medal.”<\/p>\n

Canada captures mixed team diving World Cup bronze in Montreal<\/p>\n

Canada’s Mia Vall\u00e9e, Katelyn Fung, Nathan Zsombor-Murray and Matt Cullen finish third in the 3-metre springboard and 10-metre platform mixed team final at the World Aquatics Diving World Cup in Montreal.<\/p>\n

The bronze medal was special for Vallee and Fung, who both missed qualifying for the final in their respective individual events.<\/p>\n

“It’s a bit of a redemption for me,” Vallee said. “I was excited to get a second chance and prove that I was capable of doing it.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Canadians Carson Paul and Nathan Zsombor-Murray were third and ninth, respectively, to qualify for the final of the men’s three-metre springboard event.<\/p>\n

Paul amassed 449.65 points to finish behind Wang Zongyuan (514.70) and Zheng Jiuyuan (455.70), both from China.<\/p>\n

“It was my big goal to go to this event and give some good dives to give me a chance to dive again this weekend,” said Paul. “I feel good, I’m happy with my performance.<\/p>\n

“I’ll try to reproduce it Sunday.”<\/p>\n

Zsombor-Murray had 418.25 points.<\/p>\n

Canada’s Kate Miller qualified for the women’s 10-metre final, finishing ninth in the qualification round with 301.00 points. Fung was 14th with 279.75 points but did not advance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Listen to this article Estimated 2 minutes The audio version of this article is generated by AI-based technology.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":504847,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194292],"tags":[49,48,2338],"class_list":["post-504846","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-montreal","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-montreal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/504846","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=504846"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/504846\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/504847"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=504846"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=504846"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=504846"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
