Tom Daley has announced his retirement from diving following a remarkable silver medal performance at the Paris Olympics.
Daley, along with diving partner Noah Williams, delivered an impressive series of six dives in the men’s synchro 10m platform final, securing second place on July 29.
At 30 years old, Daley competed in his fifth Olympic Games, making a comeback after a two-year hiatus, which followed his gold medal win at the delayed 2021 Tokyo Games.
His family was present to support him, including his husband and two sons, with Daley noting that competing in front of them influenced his decision to return to the sport.
This silver victory in Paris marks Daley’s fifth Olympic medal, completing his impressive collection: three bronze medals won in the London 2012, Rio 2016, and the 10m platform event at Tokyo, alongside his synchro gold from Tokyo.
