Silver rain for German divers at the European Championships in Belek!
The German divers showed great performances at the European Championships in Belek, Türkiye. Jette Müller from Rostock and Lena Hentschel from Berlin secured the silver medal in synchronized diving from the 3-meter board. They only had to admit defeat to the Ukrainian show jumping athletes and thus added another chapter of success to the German record. Ole Rösler from Rostock was also able to celebrate silver in diving in his European Championship debut and was only surpassed by Oleksii Sereda from Ukraine. These competitions, which last until May 25, 2025, support the continued development of German show jumping athletes at the international level. The NDR reports, among other things, that the event is considered an important part of the European Swimming Championships, which have been held since 1926 and have a permanent place in the international sports calendar.
As part of these championships, the Germans were also able to celebrate another great success: Moritz Wesemann and Timo Barthel won the European Championship title in synchronized jumping from the 3-meter board, thus relegating the teams from Italy and Great Britain to the places. And Pauline Pfeif from Berlin also shone with a silver medal in diving. These results illustrate the strength and talent promotion of German swimming, which has been built up over the years. According to the Wikipedia The European Championships now run every two years, with the last major tournaments also taking place in Istanbul and Rome, among others.
Challenges for Hamburger SV
While the divers are celebrating success, Hamburger SV is facing challenges in other respects. After promotion to the Bundesliga, there is a risk of losing two key players. The contract negotiations with striker Davie Selke, which have been stalled for months, are causing uncertainty. In addition, Ludovit Reis has agreed on a move to FC Brugge and a four-year contract as a pilot, but the agreement on the transfer fee between the clubs is still pending. HSV's sporting management will be required to clarify the situation and prepare the team for the new season in the coming weeks.
Successes in tennis and hockey
Another bright spot for German sport comes from the world of tennis: Eva Lys was able to win 6:0 and 6:3 in her opening game at the French Open in Paris against the American Peyton Stearns, who is currently ranked 28th in the world, and therefore only needed just under 80 minutes to win. In the second round she will face Victoria Mboko of Canada, who previously defeated Lulu Sun of New Zealand.
In addition, the hockey women of the Großflottbeker THGC are happy about reaching the Final Four for the German championship. With a thrilling 3-2 win after a penalty shootout against the club on the Alster, coach Dawid Zimnicki's team qualified for the final tournament, which will take place on May 31st and June 1st in Krefeld. The other teams competing in the final tournament are Harvestehuder THC, Mannheimer HC and Düsseldorfer HC.
In summary, it can be said that German sport is currently characterized by remarkable successes, while at the same time there are crucial challenges in various disciplines.
