Tokyo 2020: Harrogate diver Jack Laugher bags bronze in men's 3m springboard

Jack Laugher bagged the third Olympic medal of his diving career with bronze in the men's 3m springboard final at the Tokyo Aquatics Centre.

The 26-year-old from Harrogate won gold and silver at Rio 2016 and he completed the set here, claiming a place on the podium as Xie Siyi took top spot, with Chinese compatriot Wang Zongyuan finishing runner-up.

He says after almost quitting "several times", this medal means more than any of the others that he has won.

It was a consistent display from Laugher, who did not drop below 81 points in his six dives with a best of 96.9 from his forward four and a half somersaults tuck.

As his position of 3rd place was confirmed Jack mouthed to the TV cameras that he loved him mum and dad before blowing them a kiss.

Fellow Briton James Heatly qualified in fourth place but was unable to recover from a disappointing first dive in the 12-strong final and finished ninth.
