IFFLAND MOVES INTO TOP SPOT

Australia’s Rhiannan Iffland has moved into top spot in the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series, following round four in Switzerland.

Iffland appeared to be cruising towards another victory, but didn’t flawlessly execute a new dive in the final round.

Instead it was Canadian mother-of-three, Lysanne Richard, who missed the entire 2017 season with a neck injury, who claimed an emotional win.

The overall lead still gave the Australian reason to smile.
