Bronze at 10-metre individual platform

Devon diver Tom Daley has won bronze in the 10-metre individual platform event at the Toyko Olympic Games.

Daley, 27, also has a silver from the synchronised competition in which he competed with partner Matty Lee last week.

The diver, who is becoming as well-known for knitting at the poolside as he is for competing, led at the halfway stage after three successive 90-plud scores, but his fourth wasn't as good and he slipped into third place. The Chinese take away gold and silver after trumping him in their final three dives.

Daley's bronze is his second in the 10-metre individual platform. He won his first at London 2012.
