DEAN:
Thomas Daley is Britain's diving prodigy and he's qualified for the Olympics. He's only thirteen years old and looks likely to be the youngest male to represent the country. Daley is assured a starting role in the Games this August by finishing seventh in the individual event of the Diving World Cup. As qualifying rested on his final dive Daley says he was very nervous. [Thomas Daley, British Diver]:
"Going up there I was really nervous, going into the last dive. It was either make or break time really, I could either make it or I couldn't and it was, I was so nervous stood there for that dive it was the thing that I got four 10's on it, it's just absolutely phenomenal."
His Olympic gold hopes are focused on the London 2012 Olympics when he believes he will be at the peak of his form.
