Chinese diving star Quan Hongchan is making waves 🌊 as she prepares for her second Olympic appearance in Paris! At just 17, the teen phenom has already etched her name in history with a record-breaking performance at the Tokyo Games.
Quan became China's second-youngest Olympic diving champion in 2021, scoring a jaw-dropping 466.20 points in the women's 10m platform. Now, under the mentorship of five-time gold medalist Chen Ruolin, she's leveling up her game. 🚀
\"When I was a kid, I simply loved diving. Now it’s my profession—I’m not just representing myself, but our nation,\" Quan told reporters. Her hard work paid off earlier this year when she mastered the challenging 207C dive 💦 and clinched her first World Championships title against teammate Chen Yuxi.
This summer, the dynamic duo will compete both individually and as synchronized partners in Paris. With Quan’s signature determination and her wish to \"see the whole team on the podium,\" all eyes will be on this rising star. 🌟
