Going into this last dive, Archie is in a tough spot: He will need an almost perfect score in order to secure the gold. You can tell the fans
are anxious as the numbers flash on the scoreboard. It's very unlikely
that Archie can achieve a high enough score with the dive he has
planned, so, realistically, he has only two hopes left: He can attempt a
more difficult dive to gain more points, or his next-closest opponent, Li,
could falter. Otherwise, it seems certain that Archie will be locked out
of gold medal contention.
