"Very disappointed in myself with that final. Finished 6th, missed my first dive, but never gave up from there. But it'd be too hard to catch up from that point. Thank you Athens"

With this, Juliette Landi managed to qualify for both the European Junior Diving Championships held recently and the subsequent Senior World Championships. In a long, emotional Instagram post, the diver wrote,

"Walking away from nationals this year with having goals achieved and overall just very very happy with how it went! 🥇🥈"

Landi further added,

"Going into this meet, there were a lot of ups and downs. Back in April, I had to take about a month off from diving because I strained my abs. I had to come back from that injury slowly. With an injury like that, it’s something out of my control, which was hard. But I never gave up, and I really just gave it my all last weekend. Even with all that, I’m proud to have qualified for Junior Europeans and Senior Worlds!"
