About Tom Daley
One of Daley’s most memorable moments was landing an emotional 10m Platform bronze in front of a home crowd at the London 2012 Olympic Games while he also picked up 10m Platform gold and 10m Synchro silver at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.
Daley competed at four consecutive World Championships between 2009 and 2015, winning 10m Platform gold on his debut in Rome and landing 10m Platform bronze and Team gold with Rebecca Gallantree in 2015.
He also competed at four European Championships between 2008 and 2014, winning 10m Platform gold in 2008 and 2012 and silver in the same event in 2014.
In 2016, he became the first British diver to win medals at two Olympic Games, picking up 10m Synchro bronze with Dan Goodfellow.
He also scooped double gold at the London 2016 European Championships, winning the 10m Platform and Mixed 3m Synchro titles, the latter with Grace Reid.
In 2017, he landed his third World Championship gold, reclaiming the individual 10m Platform title, and scooped Mixed 3m Synchro silver with Reid on the same day in Budapest.
