Great Britain's Tonia Couch and Sarah Barrow reach the final of the women's 10m synchro at the Diving World Cup in Rio.

Great Britain's Tonia Couch and Sarah Barrow have qualified for the final of the women's 10m synchro platform at the Diving World Cup in Rio.

The duo, who won silver in the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, finished seventh in the prelims with 286.44 points.

The pair were joint third after the first dive, but they dropped down the rankings as China's Chen Ruolin and Liu Huixia topped the field.

Couch and Barrow are likely to need a top-five finish in the final in order to secure a place in the GB team for this summer's Olympic Games in Rio.
