Tom Daley Wants To Do 'Damage' At 2012 Olympics
0Comments | Comment on this Article
Tom Daley has admitted that he is looking to do some 'damage' at the 2012 Olympics in London.
The sixteen year had another fantastic year in the pool as he came home with two gold medals from the Commonwealth Games in Delhi.
He picked up gold in the men's 10m synchro with his partner Max Brick before going on to take an individual medal in the 10m platform event.
And Daley admits that when he went to Beijing he was looking to gain some competition experience but in London he has a completely different set of ambitions.
Speaking to MSN Sport Daley said: "My mindset going in to Beijing was to go and get experience, but with 2012 I want to go in there and do some damage.
"It is no secret that I will be looking to win a gold medal at London 2012, but what I do in the run-up to the Games is as important as what I do on the day itself."
But with all this success come pressure - which will be at fever pitch in the summer of 2012 - but the teenager takes it all in his stride.
"There is always pressure, there always has been. I have just got used to it and have done from an early age.
"I am just working on the basis that hopefully that will not matter and that I can continue to do well."
