The diving competitions at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo featured eight events[1] (postponed to 2021[2] due to the COVID-19 pandemic). It was one of four aquatic sports at the Games, along with swimming, water polo, and synchronised swimming.
The events were men's and women's versions each of: 3m springboard, synchronised 3m springboard, 10m platform, and synchronised 10m platform.[1]
The diving competitions featured up to 136 athletes. All divers had to be at least 14 years old on or by 31 December 2020.
Qualification[]
A nation can have no more than 16 divers qualify (up to eight males and eight females) and can enter up to two divers in individual events and one pair in synchronized events.
For the individual diving events, qualifiers will be:
- the top 12 finishers in each event from the 2019 World Championships;
- the five continental champions in each event;
- the top 18 from the 2020 FINA Diving World Cup; and
- additional competitors from the 2020 FINA Diving World Cup until the maximum quota is reached.
For the synchronized events (pairs), qualifiers will be:
- the top three finishers in each event from the 2019 World Championships;
- the top four in each event at the 2020 World Cup; and
- the host nation (Japan).
Note: Qualifying spots will go to the nation; they are not tied to the individual diver who achieved the place/finish at the qualifying event. However, an individual diver might only qualify one spot for their nation.
