He started with a tremble and then missed out on the treble.
Jack Laugher had hoped to make it a hat-trick of golds from these Games on Saturday night. In the end, England’s flagbearer battled to a bronze behind team-mates Dan Goodfellow and Jordan Houlden. But that does not even begin to tell the story of his dramatic day.
In the Saturday morning’s 3-metre springboard preliminary, Laugher scored zero in the first round after performing the wrong dive. ‘I got a bit of a knee tremble on the board,’ he later revealed.
‘I was a bit nervous and basically just doubted myself a little bit too much, so I just did a different dive.’
