Noah Williams has secured his first Olympic medal as he and his diving partner Tom Daley won silver in the men's 10m synchronised event.

The pair secured Team GB's second diving medal of the Olympics after Scarlett Mew Jensen and Yasmin Harper took bronze on Saturday (July 27) in the women’s 3m synchronised springboard event.

After placing joint-second with Canada in the opening rounds, Daley and William's strong third dive extended Great Britain’s lead and they consistently finished second in the remaining rounds.

Silver completes the collection for Daley, who has three bronzes and one gold, and it is a first Olympic medal for Williams, who lives in Hackney.

After ending his long wait for Olympic gold in the 10m synchronised event in Tokyo 2020, Daley was back defending his title after being convinced by his son, Robbie, to return to the sport.

This time Daley was competing alongside new partner Noah Williams, who won silver in the World Aquatics Championships.

After a strong set of opening dives, nothing could separate Great Britain and Canada in the first two rounds, with both teams tied on 105.00, but a brilliant third dive from Daley and Williams saw them gain a 4.8 point advantage over the Canadians.

They extended the gap with a high score of 93.96 in the following round with a back three-and-a-half somersault and they continued to consistently place second.

Daley and Williams secured their silver in the final round, scoring 93.24 on their hardest dive of the competition, a forward four-and-a-half somersault.

They finished with 463.44 points overall, 26.91 points behind China who stormed to gold in style, finishing with a score of 103.23 on their final dive, while Canada took bronze.

Daley is now a five-time Olympic medallist, having competed at five Games since making his debut at Beijing 2008 and expressed his delight at winning silver.

Reflecting on the competition, he told the BBC: “It’s just so special. This time last year deciding to come back, never mind not knowing if I would make the synchro team.

“Doing it in front of my son, who asked me to come back, is so special. I now have one of every colour. I’ve completed the set.”

The next edition of the games takes place in Los Angeles in 2028, but Daley did not reveal any plans for the future of his career.

When asked if he would compete at LA 2028, Daley said: “I don’t know. We’ll enjoy today and see what the future holds.

“Right now, I’ll just go and enjoy time with my little ones.”
