Team GB make splash with first Paris Olympics medal amid diving drama

SCARLETT MEW JENSEN admitted it was “crazy” to have secured Team GB’s first medal of Paris 2024 after claiming bronze alongside partner Yasmin Harper in a dramatic women’s 3m synchronised springboard diving final on Saturday.
After a bright start, the duo plummeted down the scoreboard into sixth after scoring 63.90 but quickly improved with the following dive, scoring 71.10 to claw their way back into fourth place.
A blunder from Australian pair Maddison Keeney and Anabelle Smith in the final round meant Mew Jensen and Harper snatched bronze.
