PARIS, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) -- Chinese diving sensation Quan Hongchan led from start to finish to win her second consecutive Olympic gold medal in the women's 10m platform.
Quan, 17, scored a total of 425.60 points and ranked first for four out of the five dives, with only her third-round dive ranking second among the 12 finalists. She earned a full mark of 90 points for her first dive.
Her Chinese teammate Chen Yuxi took silver in a repeat of the podium finish from Tokyo 2020 on 420.70 points.
Kim Mi Rae of DPR Korea took the bronze medal in 372.10.
It is Quan's second gold of the Paris Games. She paired up with Chen to win the synchronized 10m platform event last Wednesday.
