At just 17, Quan Hongchan will be competing at her second Olympics in Paris. In Tokyo, the then-14-year-old wowed audiences by scoring perfect 10s on three of her dives in the 10m platform final, winning gold.
In Paris, Quan will defend her title, competing alongside compatriot Chen Yuxi. The pair, who have dominated recent competitions, will showcase their "splashless "dives. Quan is confident, stating, "I aim to raise the Chinese flag to the highest point."
