Good on him, I just hope the pressure doesn't get to much and he's allowed to enjoy the games.
Good luck

Re: Britain's youngest ever male Olympian
He was on Chris Evans drive time show few weeks ago - Sounded like a nice bright lad and quite articulate.
He doesnt go to school though and has a tutor, I couldnt help thinking he is missing out on a lot to get to the olympics - Not much of a future in diving I dont think. (In terms of money)

It shouldn't do. There was an interview with him on TV. He's basically treating this olympics as a practice and experience, and it will be 2012 he's really going to go for. Great lad, and a good bunch of people behind him

Re: Britain's youngest ever male Olympian
Lets hope that he gets all the financial backing that he and his family need

Probably get into a university of his choice though and be financially supported as well.
