SHANGHAI - Australia's Alexandra Croak was in tears after the final of the women's 10m platform on Thursday at the FINA World Championships, saying she was "very disappointed" to finish seventh.
However, the 27-year-old still has something to be proud of as she has now represented her country in two Olympic events.
After competing at the 2000 Sydney Olympics in gymnastics, Croak turned to diving in 2004 and developed quickly enough to become a national team member. Now, her goal is a diving medal at the London Olympics next year.
