Olympics diving: Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix misses medal in Paris 2024 women’s 10m platform

Teenager Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix missed out on creating history as the first British woman to win two Olympic diving medals as she finished sixth in the 10m platform at Paris 2024.

Having claimed bronze alongside Lois Toulson in the synchronised event last week, Spendolini-Sirieix hoped to repeat the medal success in Tuesday’s individual event.

The 19-year-old from London had high hopes of creating history for Team GB, having produced a superb performance to place third in Monday’s semi-finals.

However, Spendolini-Sirieix could not match that level during the final.

Even if she had, it would have been difficult to surpass the brilliance of ******** pair Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi.

Quan, 17, won gold to defend the title she won as a 14-year-old in Tokyo, having made a strong statement with a perfect 10 in her opening *****.

Team-mate Chen, 18, took silver as they replicated their one-two at the previous Games.

North Korea’s Kim Mi Rae won bronze.
