Tanya Watson made history last summer becoming the first female diver to represent Ireland at an Olympic Games.
At the end of this month Watson will write a new chapter in the record books when she becomes the first female diver to represent Team NI at the Commonwealth Games, and she admits come a long way in the sport after her initial introduction.
“When I was younger, I remember standing on the edge of the 10 metre diving board and refusing to jump, I wouldn’t jump at all,” recalled Watson.
