Tom Daley has crashed out of the Olympic 10m diving competition in the semi final, finishing last.
Daley was expected to win a medal - maybe even gold - after his bronze in the synchronised diving with Daniel Goodfellow last week.
But he started the semi final poorly, with two low-scoring dives that left the European champion with too much ground to make.
Daley was the highest scorer in yesterday's preliminary round.
His partner Dustin Lance Black was in the crowd alongside Daley's mother, Debbie. They both looked concerned as the diver crumbled in the semi final.
Black tweeted: 'We are all so proud of all you've achieved here in #Rio2016 @TomDaley1994. We fight again another day! ONWARD!'
