Scottish diver Grace Reid is a European and Commonwealth champion, known for competing in both individual and synchronised events. Reid has represented both Scotland and Great Britain in international competition, and famously partnered with Tom Daley to claim the European mixed 3m synchro title.
Reid made her international debut at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi at the age of just 14, becoming the youngest member to represent Team Scotland at the tournament. Over the following years, she made a mark on the domestic circuit, including winning a silver medal in the 1m springboard at the 2012 National Cup and another silver in the 3m synchro at that year’s British Championships. Her first national title would come the following year in the 3m springboard, and she has since racked up over thirty podium finishes at national and international events.
Reid’s international breakthrough would be cemented at the 2016 European Championships in London, when she won gold with Tom Daley in the mixed 3m synchro and bronze in the 3m springboard. The following year, she made her World Championships debut in Budapest, securing a silver medal in the mixed 3m synchro with Daley and finishing fourth in the women’s 3m springboard. 2018 would be her strongest year yet, when she contributed two of Team GB’s ten medals at the European Aquatics Championships by landing a gold in the individual 3m springboard and a silver in the mixed 3m synchro alongside Ross Haslam. Meanwhile, at the Commonwealth Games, she would claim victory in the 1m springboard and make history as the first female diver to win a Commonwealth gold medal for Scotland. The following year, she would record her best FINA Diving World Series performance, when she and Daley scored gold in the mixed 3m Synchro at the London Aquatics Centre.
