Tom Daley claimed the fifth Olympic medal of his extraordinary diving career with silver in the men’s synchronised 10 metre platform at Paris 2024.

Daley had got his hands on gold in the same event at Tokyo 2020 but his runner-up finish alongside Noah Williams meant he completed the set of Olympic medals, having also won three bronzes.
