The odds of winning the Women's Diving Individual 3m Springboard had Shi Tingmao as the -165 favorite and Wang Han paying out $200 for every $100 bet.
Tingmao is a Chinese diver who has been dominant in the 3 metre springboard events in the 2010s.
Han specialises in the 1 meter springboard event and has won a silver medal in the 1 meter springboard event in the 2011 World Aquatics Championships. She, too, represents China.
Jennifer Abel has gained some momentum at the books as she jumps from around 18-1 odds to +650. The Canadian swimmer has won an Olympic bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics in the 3 m synchro diving event and is a four-time Commonwealth Games champion in the 1 m and 3 m synchronized springboard. A gold medal win would result in a $650 payout for gamblers.
Pamela Ware also represents Canada and pays $1000 on a $100 bet. Japan's Sayaka Mikami pays $1800.
