"Qualifying for the finals and coming in fourth place out of 12 participants in the most prestigious sporting event, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, is also a success that you should be proud of.

"Do not be sad. There’s still a long journey ahead of you. There is still much you can achieve, including in the next edition of the Olympics. Smile Nur Dhabitah!” he said.

The 22-year-old diver had delivered a consistent performance in the final on Sunday, however, the 326.15 points collected were not enough to get a podium finish.- Bernama
