Diving Canada – Medallists from the Olympic Games and World Championships set to compete
at the Montreal Olympic Park Sports Centre from April 26 to 28  
Montreal, April 25, 2019 – The world’s finest divers have arrived in Montreal for the third leg of the 2019 FINA/CNSG Diving World Series. After competing in Sagamihara (JPN) and Beijing (CHN) 85 divers from 14 diving powerhouses will go head to head to win more medals, prize money and ranking points at the Canadian stopover of this world-renowned event.
 
“The City of Montreal is pleased to welcome the FINA Diving World Series for a second year. Having a healthy and active lifestyle are a priority for our administration, and therefore, we actively contribute to sports organizations and sporting events each year. I invite all Montrealers to come out and cheer for the members of the Canadian diving team during this international event and wish good luck to all athletes”, says the Mayor of Montréal, Mme Valérie Plante.
 
This year’s competition will feature 30 medallists from the Budapest 2017 World Championships and the Rio 2016 Olympic Games who will be showcasing their talents in ten events. Amongst them are Olympic champions Jack Laugher (GBR), Shi Tingmao (CHN) and Cao Yuan (CHN), as well as world champions Tom Daley (GBR), Maddison Keeney (AUS) and Evgenii Kuznetsov (RUS). International diving stars and Olympic medallists such as Pandelela Pamg (MAS), Patrick Hausding (GER) and Canada’s own Jennifer Abel and Meaghan Benfeito are also not to be missed.
 
With many finals scheduled every day, the competition format promises to please the crowds. The eight Olympic events are scheduled, in addition to the popular mixed synchronized diving events. Canadian high diver Lysanne Richard will also be executing a dive from the 17m platform to kick-off the evening session each day. The Canadian contingent will be looking to build upon its successful results from the 2018 World Series in Montreal when Team Canada was represented in every final and won five medals.
 
“After such a successful event in 2018, we couldn’t be more excited to be back in Montreal this year,” said Penny Joyce, Chief Operating Officer at Diving Plongeon Canada. “Thanks to the passionate diving fans in this city as well the tremendous support from the volunteers and the event hosting partners, our team looks forward to performing every year in this city and winning medals for Canada in front of a hometown crowd.”
 
In addition to series sponsors China National Sports Group (CNSG), Nongfu Springs and Omega Timing, the Canadian stop of the FINA Diving World Series is supported by the City of Montreal, Tourisme Montréal, the Government of Québec and the Government of Canada. The event is set to be hosted at the Olympic Park Sports Centre until 2121.
