PETALING JAYA: Seasoned campaigner Pandelela Rinong (pic) and other divers are unable to fight for a spot in the Super Finals in China from May 1-3 following the cancellation of the World Cup leg in Mexico.

Pandelela was part of a six-member team to the World Cup scheduled in Zapopan from March 5-8, but was cancelled by the World Aquatics due to a surge of drug cartel violence in the country.
