I've noticed this before, but it was highlighted by the men's diving last night.
The Chinese Olympians seem to be under pressure to get gold, and nothing less will do. I have to wonder how much of this pressure is external, especially in the light of some of the stories we have seen about Chinese training camps.
The contrast between Tom Daley, obviously just delighted with his bronze medal, and Qui Bo devastated to be getting silver was marked.
I know that we have seen British athletes apologising for missing out on gold, but they have also been happy with their performance. Qui Bo seemed absolutely devastated, despite achieving over 560 points, which is absolutely outstanding.
I just think they should be able to enjoy their achievements, second in the world is not a bad place to be!
