Biografie

Born on May 21, 1994, in Plymouth, England, Tom Daley became a diving sensation just days after he turned 10, winning the British national junior platform title in 2004. Four years later, he scored a surprise victory at the European Championships in Eindhoven to become the youngest-ever European champion in either swimming or diving.

Daley continued to make history as the youngest British Olympian after Ken Lester (13 years and 144 days old) at 14 years and three months during the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. He finished in a creditable seventh place in the individual 10m platform event and secured an equally impressive eighth position in the synchronised 10m platform competition.

Tom Dayley: The darling of British diving

The talented British athlete won two gold medals at the 2010 Commonwealth Games, adding to his growing collection. At the London 2012 Olympics, he won an individual bronze medal, capturing the hearts and minds of the British public.

Daley added a second Olympic bronze to his collection at Rio 2016 in the synchronised event with Daniel Goodfellow. The British sensation would finally upgrade to Olympic gold alongside Matty Lee in the men’s 10m synchronised competition at Tokyo 2020 in his fourth appearance at the Games.
