David Boudia Biography
With 16 National titles and two Olympic medals, David Boudia is the top 10-meter platform diver in the U.S. and one of the best in the world, in both the individual 10-meter and synchronized 10-meter events.
Boudia decided that he was going to be an Olympian at 7 years old while watching the opening ceremonies of the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games. After years of training, his dream came true in 2008 when he competed at the Beijing Olympics, and then later won a Gold and Bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics.
Boudia began his diving career at age 11 in 2000. Though a dive from the height of an Olympic 10-meter platform once petrified him, he forced himself to overcome this fear to pursue the sport he loved. By 2005 he was a member of the U.S. National Diving Team and won the National Championships that year (synchro). He was homeschooled after 10th grade in order to focus on diving, with an eye on the 2008 Beijing Olympics. From 2006-2008 Boudia and his diving partner Thomas Finchum medaled in 14 major international competitions (10 consecutive). Boudia was named to the 2008 Olympic Team, finishing 10th individual in the 10m platform, and 5th with Finchum in the synchronized 10m.
Boudia competed at Purdue University where he broke several records and won a host of major competitions, finishing his college career with six NCAA national titles. While at Purdue he continued to thrive on the international stage as well- including five medals in the 2012 FINA Diving World Series, also becoming the first American male since 1986 to medal in the 10m platform at a World Championship with his Silver medal-winning performance in China. Boudia officially turned pro in April 2011, forgoing his final year of college eligibility to focus on the 2012 Olympics, but he continues to train with his college coach at Purdue.
Boudia won two medals at the 2012 Olympics in London, including a thrilling final-round performance in the individual 10m platform that won him the Gold medal. He also won Bronze with partner Nick McCrory in the synchronized 10m platform, becoming the first American duo to medal in the event, and the first Olympic medal for the U.S. in men’s diving since the 1996 Games in Atlanta- the Olympic Games that first captured David’s eye. In his second event- the 10m platform- Boudia barely advanced from the prelims placing 18th of 32 where only the top 18 finishers would advance. He made a strong comeback finishing third in the semis. In the final, David won the Gold medal. It was the first Olympic Gold medal for the U.S. in diving since the 2000 Olympics.
Boudia is a devout Christian and he openly references his religious beliefs as his faith plays a very big part in his life. In October 2012 he married his college sweetheart, Sonnie Brand, and in 2014 finished his degree at Purdue. David loves sports and will play just about anything competitive. Boudia joined Greg Louganis as a judge on ABC’s reality show "Celebrity Splash," which premiered March 2013.
