Plymouth diver Tom Daley has taken gold at the Olympics for the first time!
The 27-year-old and partner Matty Lee, who is making his Olympic debut in Tokyo, have won the men's synchronised 10m platform.
Tom picked up bronze medals in London and Rio but, until this morning (Monday 26th July), had never come higher than that.
This is the emotional moment the pair realised they had won and Olympic gold!
Daley and Lee's gold was Team GB's second of the games, after swimmer Adam Peaty won the men's 100m breaststroke.
He has become the first British swimmer ever to retain an Olympic gold.
Penzance rower Helen Glover and partner Polly Swann came third in their women's pair heat, earning them a place in the semi-final later this week.
