Paris [France], July 29 : British diver Tom Daley secured his fifth Olympic medal on Monday as he won a silver in the men's synchronized 10m platform diving in which he paired with Noah Williams.

Daley first competed in the Olympics when he was only 14. Since his debut in Beijing Olympics in 2008, he has won five Olympic medals. He is the first diver from Great Britain to achieve this feat.

The British pair finished with 463.44 points. Tom Daley's medals include three bronze, a gold besides a silver.
