The competition was split into two phases:
- Preliminary round (26 September)
- Divers performed ten dives. The twelve divers with the highest scores advanced to the final.
- Final (27 September)
- Divers performed another set of ten dives and the score here obtained determined the final ranking.
Days after suffering a concussion during a missed dive in winning the 3 metre springboard event, defending champion Greg Louganis won the fourth gold medal of his Olympic career, scoring a near-perfect 86.70 points on his final dive to win by a narrow margin of 1.14 points.[2]
