Here is the updated medal tally for Team GB at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

There was huge, late drama as Australia’s misplaced final dive saw the British pair sneak onto the podium, which saw them become the first British women in 64 years to win an Olympic diving medal, and the first ever in synchro competition.

Anna Henderson – silver

Making her Olympic debut, Henderson overcame tricky and rainy conditions to finish in 41 minutes and nine seconds for a result no-one was really predicting.

Adam Peaty – silver

Adam Peaty came agonisingly close to adding another gold medal to his considerable collection on Sunday night. It wasn’t meant to be, missing out on first place by 0.02 seconds. Peaty tested positive for Covid the following day.

Kimberley Woods – bronze

Kimberley Woods scooped bronze in the women’s kayak singles. It was a perfect redemption story for the 28-year-old, who three summers ago in Tokyo incurred 56 seconds of penalties for a bottom finish in her maiden ­Olympic final.

Tom Daley and Noah Williams – silver

Tom Daley and Noah Williams pushed the Chinese team right until the very end and scooped the silver medal in the men’s synchronised 10m platform dive. It was Daley’s fifth Olympic medal in his illustrious career.

Pidcock overcame a puncture earlier in the race to set up an intense final lap, edging ahead of the Frenchman to seal first place.

Adam Burgess – silver

Adam Burgess missed out on a place on the podium by 0.16 seconds in the Tokyo games, with bronze in the canoe slalom C1 this time around in Paris atoning for the near miss three years ago.

Laura Collett – bronze

Collett, who is blind in one eye after a horror fall in 2013 which saw her resuscitated five times, followed up her gold in the team eventing with bronze in the individual eventing – her third Olympic medal after claiming gold in the team eventing in Tokyo.

Matt Richards

Matt Richards, in his first Olympic games, was pipped to gold by Romania’s David Popovici by 0.02 seconds.

The 21 year-old believes that he touched the wall first, but did not apply enough pressure to register on the touchpad initially.
