David Boudia is taking an indefinite break from diving to pursue another career — real estate.
The four-time Olympic medalist won’t compete internationally this season and plans to announce in the late summer or fall whether he will return to the sport for a fourth Olympic run or retire.
He will miss the world championships for the first time in his senior career, which has dated to 2005, when he was 16 years old. Boudia said he might compete in the national championships in August.
“It’s a hard decision,” Boudia said, according to NBC’s affiliate in Indianapolis.
