    Oh it’s a shame she's back from the end of the diving board and this dive is difficult enough anyway without making it even more difficult. That impacts the take-off negatively.

    Grace does the best job possible off a really poor take-off. That’s what happens when the pressure is on.

    GB's Reid unhappy with second divepublished at 14:20 British Summer Time 9 August

    Ooooh Grace Reid won't be happy with that one.

    Her second dive doesn't go to plan at all and she only scores 41.85, taking her overall score to 100.35.

    A little bit arched in the lower back and little bit of ankle-wash as she goes in but considering where that dive has been, certainly towards a higher end from a performance and execution point of view.

    It is a good start [for Grace Reid], she’s a little heavy on the bottom of the dive, bit too much splash being thrown up.

    The take-off and aerial work was excellent, she had enough time but didn’t quite lock out the arms.
