London 10m diving

When Tom Delay not a typo splashed into the water, he re-dived. A bronze! What a great nation. Need me to say more? I bet not. Congratulations to Tom for the historical achievement he has made tonight.

The first guy had a re-dive in major diving competition. Why did you guys keep talking about seven dives? Do you know how hard Tom worked to make every ticket worthwhile? How lucky! Seriously, BBC stop deleting my comments. This is absolutely fantastic, I am happy and hope Mr. Daley will dive more than 7 in next Olympic. Comment posted by Jack, at 11 Aug Jack. Judges gave very low points to china, so unfair. Never heard of re-dive. Stupid judges.

Shame on TD. The worst Olympic I have ever seen. Tom you could have won GOLD if the judges gave you 8 dives! Congratulate you for winning the bronze medal today! Your performance today will stay fresh in people's mind for many years. That doesn't happen a lot even for gold medalists' performance, but who can forget that you dived SEVEN times today? Again, congratulations!

What a grate performance!! Or are suggesting he will need 8 dives next time? Happy to see that Daley was so proud to see American dominate the 10m diving.

Neeltje Stuurman City of Sheffield finished fourth with a score of But he appeared plenty happy with his bronze medal, jumping into the diving pool with his teammates and coaches for a splashfest after the final scores were posted. The year-old diver looked every bit his age when he jumped up and down on the medals podium after being introduced to wild cheers. Daley came close to getting a medal in meter synchro, but he and Peter Waterfield finished fourth. That result triggered malicious Twitter messages directed at Daley, including one that threatened him with drowning.

A year-old British man was arrested and issued a harassment warning. Daley, one of the biggest faces of the London Games, badly wanted to win a medal in tribute to his father, Robert, who died of brain cancer at 40 last year. He taught me everything, so it's been tough. Daley's bronze was the first diving medal of any kind for Britain since , when Waterfield and Leon Taylor won the meter synchronized event, and it was the first individual medal since , when the country won two bronzes.

It was quite a comeback for Boudia and Daley, who were inconsistent in the preliminaries on Friday night. Daley finished 15th, while Boudia grabbed the 18th and last spot for the semifinal. That left them with a lot of ground to make up to earn berths in the man final. But they returned to the pool Saturday morning looking like different divers. Boudia qualified third behind the two Chinese and Daley was fourth.

Scores from the earlier rounds didn't carry over. In the final, Daley got a do-over on his first dive after complaining he was distracted by camera flashes in the stands.

The FINA judge reviewed the replay, which showed several flashes going off, and allowed Daley to go back up the tower for another attempt. He took advantage of his second chance, raising his score from Victor Minibaev of Russia finished fourth. Jose Guerra of Cuba was just. Lin Yue of China was sixth, falling from second after his third dive.

He earned one 10 in the round. Skip to main content Skip to navigation. Boudia wins 1st diving gold for U. A heart attack, a rescue and a recovery at the Boston Marathon.
