Did NBC skip showing some athletes?

Question

i wanted to see tom daley in men's platform diving, but they didn't even show him (at least, when i watched)! they showed mostly everyone else, but i also noticed they didn't show a few others. why?

Answer 1

he was on yesterday (in America) on the 10m diving finals.

sorry=(

Answer 2

NBC notoriously picks and chooses who they want us to see, and who they do not think is worthy (as if!).  They think we would rather see folks toweling off in the shower or sitting in the hot tub than actual competition.

They only showed one of Tom Daley's dives during finals - if you're in the US and watched their coverage during primetime.

So... it's not just you!!!

However, you can check out nbcolympics.com and check for videos by athlete, so you might give that a try.

Answer 3

I watched most of them live but in the late evening (10pm-3am), due to my schedule. I don't think any one network was able to show every event.
