The 2012 games in London were Kristian Ipsen‘s first Olympic appearance, and Ipsen, 19, had high hopes this summer, and he didn’t disappoint, earning the bronze medal in the 3m snychro event with his diving partner Troy Dumais. In 2009, Ipsen and Dumais took home the silver medal at the Diving World Championships in Rome for the 3m synchro springboard event. Ipsen, who also competes in the 3m springboard individual event, has yet to win gold in a major international tournament, but he isn’t letting the pressure interfere with his game. “And I feel like when I just focus on myself and kind of block everything else out, that’s when I do well,” Ipsen told Uinterview in our exclusive interview.
