Tom Daley and Blake Aldridge are going to Beijing to compete as a team in the 10m synchronized diving event. The duo won Britain's first ever gold medal at the Fina Diving World Series earning them a slot in the Olympics.

So he's not going to Beijing. Leon Taylor will ride off into the sunset like them movies you watch when someone retires. LOL.
Will Australia's Melissa Wu win a gold medal in Beijing? I was surprised when she beat the Chinese divers during the 2008 Canada Cup Grand Prix. According to olympics.com.au Melissa is looking forward to the Beijing Games:

“I was really happy with the way I went in Canada, especially taking home the gold. I was up against some of the strongest competition, like the Chinese Divers, so it was good to get that result,” Wu said.
The pint-sized 16-year-old who stands at just 137cm in height and 33kg makes history as the youngest Australian Diver ever to qualify for an Olympic Games.
This is my blog. It will be about divers. For starters it will be about Olympic divers in Beijing. But it will also be about other divers as well. Hope you will enjoy this blog. Hope you will come back. Thank you very much.
