PROFILE
Unusually for a platform diver, Tourky has a natural fear of heights. But that’s something she has overcome, instead funnelling her fear into aggression on the platform.
"I'm actually a bit scared up there," she says.
"No coach could ever actually push me up there, but I started it and I gradually am getting to like it.
