PARIS: National diver Nur Dhabitah Sabri has revealed that her journey to the 2024 Paris Olympics has been far from smooth, as she raced against time to refine her skills and techniques within a month's time after being awarded an unused country quota ticket to Paris.

Nur Dhabitah, who finished last in the final of the women's 3m springboard event at the Olympic Aquatic Centre on Friday (Aug 9), said she wasn't fully prepared for an Olympic-level challenge.
