They became the first ever Brits to win an Olympic women's synchronised dive medal. And soon after, cyclist Anna Henderson, 25, won the time trial silver to give Team GB what chiefs confirmed is our best start to a Games in 44 years. Diving duo Yasmin and Scarlett took bronze after a dramatic final round showdown with their Aussie rivals.
They took full advantage of a slip by one of them as Tom Daley watched on, nervously knitting a jumper in the stands.
Londoner Scarlett, 22, revealed she'd broken a bone in her back just three months ago while Yasmin, from Sheffield, said the medal was a great 24th birthday present.
Both paid homage to their Team GB coach David Jenkins, who died three years ago aged 31 from sudden adult death syndrome.
