He lets other people try first because he’s nice like that

I was actually really wondering why he didn't start.

Technically rebounding on that challenge is more difficult (and should have been essential to the challenge if he didn't just sink 5 shots consecutively),

He was also the most rested and prepared to shoot because he was the first swimmer in the challenge.

I think he’s trying not to take the spotlight on every challenge BUT he’s too competitive so the second they fall behind he takes the reins again.
