Gold rush delivers a perfect finish

In the men's 10-meter platform diving final, defending champion Cao Yuan clinched gold, helping China achieve its clean sweep of all eight diving titles at the Games. This marked Cao's fourth Olympic appearance, earning him a career total of four gold medals, one silver and one bronze from London 2012 to Paris 2024.

Since the Chinese diving team debuted at the Los Angeles Games in 1984, it has consistently won gold medals, but achieved a clean sweep for the first time in Paris.

Also on Saturday, twins Wang Liuyi and Wang Qianyi clinched gold in the duet event of artistic swimming with a total score of 566.4783, marking China's first Olympic victory in a discipline that demands grace, poise, incredible lung power and flawless acrobatic skills.

Earlier, the sisters also contributed to China's gold medal in the artistic swimming team event.
