Tom! Well done! What a year but you did us all proud. Tha death of my father rocked me for a long time but you coped admirable. Bless you and your family.
Why did he do a less difficult dive as his final dive and not be able to get as many points?
He had to. You submit all your dives beforehand and he chose to do the harder ones in the middle
yer he did his 3.6 (what the other two guys did on their final dive) on his first dive. He scored about 10 points lower. he performed well, gave it his all but the other two were just better. He deserves his bronze and seems very happy with it.
We was in there Thursday night and they were very strict on the flashes it must be difficult but there ate 5 or 6 huge lights level with the diver at 10 Mtr that surely they would put you off more

18 and a bronze medal. Can't knock that.
Can't work out the scoring though
The usa guy had to be perfect just to beat them
This is an astonishing result for tom daley
A huge achievement, with so much pressure. I'm well made up for him.
I'm sure Tom's Dad is sooo proud of him right now .
Just like we all are
Very off putting in such a technical discipline so Tom was well within his rights by my reckoning.
Good stuff.
