Australian divers take centre stage at the Tokyo Aquatic Centre on Friday, but one Aussie has already been putting in the work at the diving pool.

Gillian Brooker, the CEO of Diving New South Wales, has been in the judging chair as Australia’s representative at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Diving Australia CEO David Bell said that Brooker has proved herself as one of the world’s premier diving officials.

“Gillian time and time again has shown her dedication to fair and proper diving in our country,” Bell said.

“We are incredibly proud of her commitment and congratulate her on this fantastic achievement.”

The Tokyo 2020 Games is the second Olympics Brooker has judged at, the other being Rio 2016.

Australian divers start their Olympic campaign on Friday with the Women’s 3-Metre Springboard preliminaries.
