The diving dream team achieved eight consecutive Olympic championships in this event. He Zi won the silver medal again in four years with 387.90 points, while Italian veteran Cagnoto won the bronze medal with 372.80 points. Prior to this, in the past seven Olympic Games, China team had won the women's single three-meter springboard championship without exception. At the Rio Olympics, young player Shi Tingmao participated in the Olympics for the first time, while He Zi participated in the Olympics for the second time. Four years ago, He Zi lost to Wu Minxia in the final of this event and won a silver medal. In the Rio cycle, Shi Tingmao and He Zi almost won the championship and runner-up in the women's three-meter springboard in the World Series. They were both champions of the World Cup and the World Championships. In other words, no matter who wins the championship in Rio, he will achieve a personal Grand Slam. In the semi-finals held in the early morning of August 14, Beijing time, China player Shi Tingmao scored 385 points, ranking first, and China player He Zi ranked second with 364.05. As a result, he entered the final with the top two places."Double Insurance" is expected to successfully complete the defense defense. According to the rules, in the finals, each player needs to complete five rounds of movements. The first two rounds were prescribed movements. The two China players performed well and the water entry effect was handled very well. After two jumps, Shi Tingmao and He Zi both scored 162.00 points, ranking the top two. In the third round, He Zi, who was the first to appear, chose to somersault forward for three and a half times. Although the height of the board and jump was better, the opening time was a little late, so that the effect of entering the water was average. In the end, she scored 74.40 points. Immediately after, Shi Tingmao chose to reverse somersaults for two and a half turns. His movements were clean and agile and the effect of entering the water was excellent, and he scored 84 points. After this round, Shi Tingmao ranked first with 246 points and He Zi ranked second. In the fourth round, Shi Tingmao somersaulted forward for three and a half times, but his walking was slightly flawed and he scored 79.50 points. He Zi chose to somersault backwards two and a half times, performed steadily, and scored 76.50 points. While continuing to win the top two places, the difference between the two China players and others was further widened. In the last round, Shi Tingmao and He Zi both chose to somersault forward for two and a half turns and turn one. The former completed even better, scoring 81.00 points and winning the championship with a total score of 406.05. He Zi's effect on entering the water was slightly worse, scoring 75.00 points and winning a silver medal with a total score of 387.90. Italian player Cagnoto scored 81.00 points with his outstanding performance in the last jump, reversing the bronze medal with 372.80 points. After winning this Olympic medal, Shi Tingmao became the fourth player to achieve the women's three-meter springboard Grand Slam after Gao Min, Guo Jingjing and Wu Minxia. At the same time, this is the second gold medal won by young player Shi Tingmao in this Olympic Games. In the previous women's synchronized three-meter springboard final, Shi Tingmao and Wu Minxia combined to play steadily and lead the way with 345.60 points to easily win the gold medal. It helped the China team achieve four consecutive championships in this event and also won its first Olympic gold medal. For the first time in the Olympic Games, Shi Tingmao won two gold medals in the single and double three-meter springboard, becoming the double champion of this year's Rio women's three-meter springboard, replicating the achievements of Wu Minxia at the London Olympics and Guo Jingjing at the two Athens and Beijing Olympics. As a result, Shi Tingmao, who performed so well, is considered to be the best candidate for the future new sister of the China women's team. On the contrary, He Zi has won silver medals in the women's singles three-meter springboard event for two consecutive Olympic Games. Wu Minxia blocked him in the front and Shi Tingmao chased him in the back. The Olympic journey of this China famous star was slightly regrettable. It is difficult for the 25-year-old He Zi to continue to compete for the Olympic individual gold medal. At the London Olympics, He Zi and Wu Minxia once won a precious gold medal in the women's synchronized three-meter springboard event. However, it is worth celebrating that after the women's three-meter springboard award ceremony, Qin Kai, who was also a player of the China diving team, knelt on one knee and walked to the podium to propose to his girlfriend He Zi. With He Zi nodding and agreeing, the two ended their six-year long love run. At this Rio Olympics, veteran Qin Kai won a bronze medal in the men's three-meter springboard synchronized event.
