Bob Morgan (diver)

Robert ("Bob", "Bobby" or "Robby") Morgan (born 27 March 1967) is a retired Welsh diver, who competing for Wales and Great Britain is best known for winning a bronze and a silver medal in the men's 10 m platform at the European Championships in the early 1990s, and the first Welsh diver to win gold at the Commonwealth Games.

Born in Cardiff and raised in Llantwit Major, Morgan represented the United Kingdom at four consecutive Summer Olympics, starting in 1984 (Los Angeles, California); and at five consecutive Commonwealth Games, in 1982, 1986, 1990, 1994 and 1998, winning three medals—bronze, silver and gold.

Having been a roommate with millionaire tennis player Greg Rusedski in Atlanta, in the aftermath of Great Britain's disastrous performance at the 1996 Summer Olympics, Morgan and fellow diver Tony Ali were forced to sell their team kit to passers by on the street in order to pay off loans: something seen as the nadir of an already poor British performance.

Post the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, aged 29 Morgan took a summer job show-diving at Legoland in a pirate show, and the following summer worked the summer season at Thorpe Park, and performing in pantomime in South Wales the winter. After then working odd jobs, including a period with Tesco's, he joined an estate agency run by former Welsh International rugby players. Now running his own estate agency business in Bridgend and married with three children, Morgan's daughter Mali competed as part of Team Wales at the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester.
