Daley announces retirement from diving

Five-time Olympic medallist Tom Daley has confirmed his retirement from diving.

The 30-year-old won silver alongside Noah Williams in the men's synchronised 10m platform in Paris to complete his set of medals.

Daley, who first competed in the 2008 Games at the age of 14, won bronze in London 2012 and in Tokyo in 2021 in the 10m platform, as well as bronze in the men's synchronised 10m platform in Rio 2016.

He won gold in the individual 10m platform in Tokyo and had effectively retired after those Games, before deciding to return for Paris in order to compete in front of his two children.

"It was emotional at the end, up there on the platform, knowing it was going to be my last competitive dive," Daley told Vogue., external

"But I have to make the decision at some point, and it feels like the right time. It's the right time to call it a day."
