View All News

Molly Carlson earned her second podium finish of the season, and Jessica Macaulay was fourth on Saturday at the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series stop in Paris, France. Aimee Harrison finished 10th.

The second stop of the 2022 season on the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series took place on River Seine in Paris and featured 12 divers in the final round.

Carlson, the youngest female to ever win a Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series event (June 4 in Boston), finished with a combined score of 350.70 behind only Australia’s Rhiannan Iffland (383.15). American Eleanor Smart was third with a cumulative score of 314.80.

“I am extremely content with today’s performance. I think I was so consistent across the board between all four dives,” said Carlson, a native of Thunder Bay, Ont. “I got between 8 and 8.5 on literally every single dive, and that just goes to show that I didn’t hit anything, but I didn’t miss anything, and I’m really proud of that.”

Macaulay improved on her fifth-place finish two weeks ago with a combined score of 291.55. The 29-year-old native of Great Yarmouth in the United Kingdom is representing Canada on the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series for a second straight season.

“Today’s performance was alright. They were sort of low scores, but in the end, I’m happy. I came fourth,” Macaulay said. “I wouldn’t say I took satisfaction in the improvement because I know I have what it takes to take the podium. In the end, I am happy with my performance, I had a lot of fun up there. My reverse was pretty good; my back I know I could do way better”

Harrison, making her first start of the season, entered the final round in 10th place and scored 62.70 on her last dive to finish with a cumulative score of 233.60.

View All News

Molly Carlson s’est retrouvée sur le podium pour la deuxième fois cette année et Jessica Macauley a terminé quatrième samedi à l’édition des Séries mondiales Red Bull Cliff Diving à Paris, en France. Aimee Harrison a pris le dixième rang.

La deuxième étape de la saison 2022 des Séries mondiales Red Bull Cliff Diving avait lieu sur la Seine à Paris et mettait en vedette douze plongeuses dans la ronde ultime.

Carlson, la plus jeune plongeuse de l’histoire à remporter une épreuve des Séries mondiales Red Bull Cliff Diving le 4 juin dernier à Boston, a terminé avec un pointage de 350.70 derrière l’Australienne Rhiannan Iffland (383.15). L’Américaine Eleanor Smart a terminé troisième avec 314.80 points.

« Je suis très satisfaite de ma performance aujourd’hui. Je pense que j’ai été constante à tous les niveaux, sur quatre plongeons », a partagé Carlson, native de Thunder Bay, en Ontario. « J’ai obtenu des 8 et des 8.5 à chaque plongeon. Ça indique que je n’ai pas été parfaite mais aussi que je n’ai rien manqué. Je suis vraiment fière. »

 Macauley a amélioré son classement par rapport à sa cinquième place d’il y a deux semaines avec un pointage de 291.55. La plongeuse de 29 ans, native de Great Yarmouth, au Royaume-Uni, représente le Canada sur le circuit Red Bull Cliff Diving pour une seconde saison d’affilée.

 « Ma performance aujourd’hui était bonne. Mes notes étaient un peu basses mais somme toute, je suis contente d’avoir terminé quatrième », a déclaré Macauley. « Je ne dirais pas que je me contente de cette amélioration car je sais que je suis capable d’atteindre le podium. En fin de compte, je suis heureuse de ma performance, j’ai vraiment eu beaucoup de plaisir là-haut. Mon plongeon renversé s’est bien passé mais je sais que je peux effectuer mon plongeon arrière beaucoup mieux. »

Harrison, à sa première présence sur le circuit cette saison, se trouvait au dixième rang à la dernière ronde et a obtenu 62.70 points à son dernier plongeon, pour clôturer l’épreuve avec 233.60 points.
