Olympic medalists headline U.S. roster for diving worlds
U.S. diving moves on without David BoudiaThree Olympic medalists headline the U.S. roster for the world diving championships, but David Boudia is absent for the first time since 2003.
Trials concluded Sunday in Indianapolis, where Olympic synchro platform silver medalist Steele Johnson made his first worlds team on the 3m springboard.
Johnson teamed in Rio with the 2012 Olympic platform champion Boudia, who is not competing this international season and may retire.
At world trials, Johnson was edged on the 3m springboard by Olympic synchro springboard silver medalist Michael Hixon, but both made the team as the U.S. can enter two divers per individual event at worlds.
