Alex Croak and Melissa Wu have kicked off their international season with a bronze medal in the women’s 10m platform synchro at the Beijing leg of  2011 FINA Diving World Series.

The event, which took place in the same venue at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, was won by China, with Malaysia grabbing silver. Croak and Wu combined to score 331.50 points, just under seven points behind the silver medallists.

The meet proved to be a double delight for Croak, who also won bronze in the women’s 10m platform, scoring 357.50 points.
