NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Laura Wilkinson may have to fight back tears when she steps onto the diving platform for the final time during the Beijing Olympics.<br>
"It's kind of bittersweet," Wilkinson said. "It's my third Olympics, but it's also going to be my last Olympics. It's kind of a farewell at the same time. I get really excited but really emotional about it a lot."<br>
Wilkinson, who won a gold medal in Sydney in 2000 and finished fifth in Athens in 2004, will begin her competition in the women's 10-meter platform event on Wednesday.
