Pandelela pulls out with shoulder pain at Singapore Worlds
SINGAPORE: A recurring shoulder injury proved costly for Pandelela Rinong, forcing her and partner Lee Yiat Qing to withdraw halfway through their women's 10m platform synchro routine at the World Aquatics Championships on Monday. The Malaysian pair completed just two of five dives, scoring 87 points, before pulling out during the preliminaries at the OCBC Aquatic Centre. Pandelela revealed that the injury, sustained earlier this month, flared up during the warm-up session. "After two dives, we decided to withdraw for safety reasons," she wrote on Facebook. "Thank you, especially to those who came to the venue to support us." It was a double setback for Malaysia, as Nurqayyum Nazmi Nazim-Yong Rui Jie also failed to progress in the men's 3m springboard synchro. The pair finished 21st out of 26 pairs, with a total of 302.76 points, well outside the top-eight cut-off required for the final. - Bernama

Pandelela Rinong withdraws from world championships due to shoulder injury
A shoulder injury forced national diving star Datuk Pandelela Rinong and her partner Lee Yiat Qing to withdraw from the women's 10m synchronised event at the World Aquatics Championships in Singapore. The pair completed two of their five scheduled dives, scoring 87 points before pulling out during the preliminaries at the OCBC Aquatic Centre. Pandelela revealed the injury, sustained earlier this month, flared up during warm-ups. 'After two dives, we decided to withdraw for safety reasons. I want to thank everyone, especially those who came to support us,' she posted on Facebook. Earlier, Malaysian divers Nurqayyum Nazmi Mohamad Nazim and Yong Rui Jie missed the finals in the men's 3m synchronised springboard, finishing 21st out of 26 teams with 302.76 points. In swimming, Khiew Hoe Yean failed to progress in the men's 200m freestyle, placing 31st overall with a time of 1:48.10. SEA Games champion Phee Jinq En also withdrew from the women's 100m breaststroke due to a hip and groin issue. National swimming head coach Eric Anderson explained that Jinq En opted out to focus on the 50m breaststroke event on August 2. 'The team flew here straight from the World University Games in Berlin, which is hardly ideal,' he said. - Bernama

Injury ripple hits Malaysia's aquatic hopes
Malaysian Pandelela Rinong competes in Women's 10 meter Platform semi final at Maria Lenk Aquatics Centre in Rio De Janeiro,Brazil .t AZHAR MAHFOF/The Star (18/8/2016) PETALING JAYA: It was a tough day for Malaysia at the World Championships in Singapore, as Olympic divers Pandelela Rinong and Phee Jinq En were forced to withdraw from their respective pet events. Two-time Olympic medallist Pandelela's old injury flared up just before she was due to compete in the women's 10m platform synchro preliminary event in the afternoon. As a result, the Sarawak-born diver had to pull out of the event with partner Lee Yiat Qing. Pandelela has won a total of five medals in previous appearances in this event at the world meet. The 10m platform synchro is also the same event where Pandelela picked up a historic Olympic silver medal with Cheong Jun Hoong in the 2016 edition in Rio de Janeiro. But that was in the past and Pandelela certainly missed a good opportunity to check out where she stands with her new partnership with the younger Yiat Qing. Pandelela put up a quick update on her social media account on her withdrawal from the 10m platform synchro event later. "Earlier this month, I injured my left shoulder but still manageable under physiotherapy. "Today during warming up, the shoulder injury got triggered again when executing one of the high difficulty dives just before the event.
