Diving: Olympic duo finish fourth in Moscow

Chris Mears and Nick Robinson-Baker fell just short of a second FINA Diving World Series medal in a week after impressing in Edinburgh last weekend.

The three-metre synchro pairing snatched bronze at the Royal Commonwealth Pool last week, but had to be content with fourth place yesterday 
as the series moved on to Moscow.

The London Olympic finalists posted a score of 383.40 to be 16.14 points shy of the podium.

Ukraine’s Illya Kvasha and Oleksiy Prygorov upset the Chinese favourite, Qin Kai and He Chong, to take gold by just 0.96 points.

Mears will be in action again today in the men’s individual springboard.
