Hey everyone! 🙋♂️ Guess what? China’s diving team just made a big splash at the Diving World Cup in Windsor, Canada! 🌊
They won the gold medal 🥇 in the mixed 3-meter and 10-meter team event on Friday. The team was made up of four amazing divers: Wang Zongyuan, Chen Yuxi, Chen Yiwen, and Cheng Zilong. They are super talented! 🤩
In this event, divers take turns jumping off different heights: 3 meters and 10 meters. That’s like jumping from the height of a two-story or three-story building! 😲
Chen Yiwen started off diving from the 3-meter springboard and scored a fantastic 76.50 points. Then Wang Zongyuan jumped and added an awesome 89.25 points, putting China in the lead! 🏅
Next, Chen Yiwen and Cheng Zilong teamed up for synchronized diving from the 3-meter springboard. They moved together perfectly and scored 72 points! 🤝
Then, Chen Yuxi wowed everyone by diving from the 10-meter platform and scored an impressive 90.75 points! That’s so high up! 😮
Even though Cheng Zilong didn’t score as high individually next, he and Chen Yuxi finished strong in the synchronized 10-meter platform dive with 80 points. Together, they helped China secure the big win! 🎉
Mexico won the silver medal 🥈, and Italy took the bronze 🥉. Great job to all the teams!
Isn’t it exciting to see such amazing athletes perform? Maybe one day, you could try diving too! 🤗
