Daley looks to shine at his home Olympic Games

SHANGHAI - After being dethroned at the Shanghai FINA World Championships, young British diving star Thomas Daley has set his sights on preparing for the 2012 Olympic Games on home soil.

"The next Olympic Games are going to be incredible, because not every athlete gets the chance to compete in an Olympic Games, let alone in your home country. So it's going to be very exciting. I can't wait to go there and see what happens," the 17-year-old Daley told China Daily on Monday in Shanghai.

"My dream is to win a medal (at the London Olympics), but it's just all about what happens on the day because there are about eight to 10 divers that can get medal. It's going to be very tough competition."
