The Olympic Games have not even been concluded for a day. But despite this, one of the heavier profiles during the championship has already chosen to end his career.

The British diver Tom Daley announced on Monday that he is ending his career, at the age of 30.

I have to make a decision sometime, and it feels like the right time now. It's the right time to quit, he says in an interview with British Vogue.

Daley had to "settle" for a silver in synchronized diving during the Olympic Games in Paris, but won gold in the same event at the Tokyo Olympic Games three years earlier.

In total, he has five Olympic medals and is a major sports profile in the United Kingdom, with nearly four million followers on Instagram.
