SNTV talks to Chinese diving star Qiu Bo

Tuesday, February 28 2012 by SNTV

  • Intro:

    Chinese diving star Qiu Bo insists he is focusing only on himself as he gets set for the 2012 Olympic Games.

    Qiu won the 10 metre platform final at the FINA Diving World Cup in London on Saturday (25th February) - an Olympic test event.

    And he's a strong favourite to take gold at the London Games this summer.

    Script:

    You don't have to know much about diving to realise that this Chinese man is on the top of his game.

    Qiu (shoo) Bo won the men's 10 metre platform at the Diving World Cup in London - an Olympic test event.

    British hopeful Tom Daley has been criticised for doing too much media work by his coach.

    But Qiu thinks the British team will still perform well at the Olympics.

    SOUNDBITE: (Mandarin) Qiu Bo

    "For sure, different areas have different styles of competing, and they have different ability to adjust to the atmosphere and the environment. So the British divers could do very well during the Olympic Games."

    Another Brit - Peter Waterfield picked up a bronze medal. The competition clearly strong - it's now about consistency for Qiu Bo.

    SOUNDBITE: (Mandarin) Qiu Bo

    "I learned a lot from the Youth Olympic Games in Singapore. Each event and competition I take part in will help me to gain some experience to prepare for the Olympic Games."
    So remember the name - Qiu Bo is likely to dominate the diving at the Olympics.
