About Alicia Blagg
Blagg was just 13 years old when she made her Commonwealth debut, competing in the 1m, 3m and 3m Synchro for England at Delhi 2010, finishing fourth in the latter with Rebecca Gallantree.
She competed in her maiden Olympic Games as a 15-year old two years later, finishing seventh with Gallantree in the 3m Synchro at London 2012.
The following season, Blagg landed her first major international medal, winning 3m Synchro bronze with Gallantree at the 2013 European Championships in Rostock, while the pair upgraded to gold in the same event at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.
The pair returned to the podium again in front of a home crowd at the London 2016 European Championships, winning 3m Synchro silver. They also finished sixth at both the Rio 2016 Olympic Games and the FINA World Cup in 2016.
Blagg won her second Commonwealth medal at her third Games in 2018, teaming up with Kat Torrance for silver in the 3m Synchro.
