🤸♀️ Breaking records and defying gravity, 17-year-old Chinese diver Quan Hongchan just etched her name into Olympic history at the Paris Aquatic Centre! The teenage sensation clinched gold in the women’s 10-meter platform event, outscoring even her teammate Chen Yuxi in a nail-biting showdown. 🌊
Quan stunned judges with a near-flawless first dive, earning a jaw-dropping 90 points. Her total score of 425.6 points secured her back-to-back Olympic titles after her Tokyo 2020 triumph. Chen Yuxi took silver (420.7 points), while Kim Mi Rae of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea claimed bronze (372.1).
At just 17, Quan has now become China’s youngest-ever three-time Olympic gold medalist. 🥇💫 Fans worldwide are calling her the ‘Diving Prodigy’ – and honestly, we’re all here for her iconic splash-free entries! 🚀
This win adds to China’s growing medal tally, which now includes 1 gold, 3 silver, and 2 bronze medals in Paris. Next stop for Quan? Probably rewriting physics textbooks. 📚✨
