Wow Well Done Daley - Gold at the World Championships

[FAQtothefuture]

here

well done to him.

I saw this on Sky Sports news - well done him looking good for 2012

Brilliant result and a wonderful picture

Bet his mum and dad are proud

Well done

But until I looked at the link I thought you were talking about Daley Thompson

well done to him . I always knew that he would achieve something like this, I just didn't expect it to happen so soon. What a great answer to the bullies who forced him out of his school as well. I hope the BBC give him the Sports Personality of the Year award in December - he deserves it.

it's only diving

southeastastra - it might be 'only diving' be Tom still deserves credit for his achievement. Remember, he was competing against adults much older and far more experienced than he is.

thats you told SEA

god its like having your MUm around

Good for him, although sadly I'm so old that my first thought, on reading the op, was 'Blimey! Daley Thompson's a bit old for all that malarkey isn't he?'

I am a dinosaur.

Keri-Anne Payne also got a Gold in the 10km open water swim

Mad woman Well done to them both

fair play.
on a sidenote isn't the "bbc sports personality of the year" the most ridiculos award going? i mean what's the criteria? and anyway if england hold out for the ashes i thing FF is already a lock for the award.

I'm really glad he got this, as it's two fingers to all the twerps at Eggbuckland Comp who didn't support him.

It also shows what some Plymouthians can do!
