The teenager from Plymouth, who last month became the second-youngest male Olympian in British history when he qualified for Beijing, held off the challenges of Germany's Sascha Klein and Francesco Dell'Uomo, of Italy, who finished in second and third respectively.

Daley finished with a score of 491.95 points, ahead of Klein on 487.60pts and Dell'Uomo on 481.30.
