No free ticket: Even Paris Olympian Bertrand Rhodict has to meet the qualifying standard for a spot in the World Championships squad.

KUALA LUMPUR: No diver even Paris Olympian Bertrand Rhodict is assured of a place in the squad for the World Championships in Singapore from July 11-Aug 3.

Bertrand has a strong resume as an Olympian having competed in Paris in the men’s 10m platform individual event and reaching the final of the same event at the world meet in Doha but surprisingly, he has yet to qualify.
