Williams arrived home from Paris with two medals: his silver with Daley and an individual bronze in the men’s 10m platform.
As for what the future holds for the British diver, he says he will be taking some time to figure out his plans.
“The next six months are going to be a lot more chilled,” he said. “Well, I say chilled, I’m still doing a lot of fitness and activity, but less diving, because I’m not sure what I’m going to do, is the truth.
“I don’t wan’t to dive just because I’m good at it, because it does take a lot of mental energy, a big toll on you.
“I don’t want to complain and say travelling because I love travelling and competing, but being away from family and friends a lot of the year, that stuff is genuinely quite hard.”
With the next Olympic Games taking place in Los Angeles in 2028, Williams says he is also assessing whether age may play a factor in his decision to go through another Olympic cycle.
“I saw a lot of people saying, ‘Tom’s retiring? But he’s only 30’, but I don’t think they realise that 30 is actually old in the world of diving,” he said.
“That’s why, when he took two years out after Tokyo, no-one was particularly shocked.
“Even though I’m 24, I’m not far off being too old to dive – which seems crazy.”
