Australian diver in Olympic

Maddison Keeney made history at the Paris Olympics by becoming the first Australian to win a medal in the 3m springboard diving event, securing a silver with a remarkable performance under pressure. Despite past struggles with nerves, she delivered an impressive final dive, scoring the highest in that round, and expressed her gratitude for the journey that led her to this moment. Fellow Australian athletes also had notable achievements, including Matthew Richardson winning silver in track cycling and paddlers Tom Green and Jean van der Westhuyzen claiming bronze in the men's K2 event. Meanwhile, Anthony Harding earned a bronze in the Men's Synchronised 3m Springboard alongside partner Jack Laugher, extending Laugher's legacy of Olympic success. British diver Yasmin Harper, who previously benefited from Keeney's earlier slip in the competition, praised Keeney's deserving victory. Cassiel Rousseau, another Australian diver, is inspired by his Olympic-winning grandfather as he competes in the 10m platform semi-finals.
