China claim another Diving gold

Chen Ruolin and Wang Hao claimed China's third gold medal in as many Divingevents at the Aquatic Centre as they prevailed in the women's Synchronised 10m Platform final.

POLO AIR INDONESIA - Mexico's Alejandra Orozco Loza and Paolo Espinosa Sanchez claimed silver, with Canadian duo Meaghan Benfeito and Roseline Filion finishing in the bronze medal position.

Great Britian duo Tonia Couch and Sarah Barrow, the European champions, finished in fifth place.

'I expected the gold medal, that's why I was so calm during the medal ceremony,' said Wang.

'I was very excited when it was decided that I would partner Chen at these Olympics. She was already a gold medallist and a great champion. I've wanted this for a long time.'

Chen, who will also seek to defend her Individual Platform title next week, said: 'I just told her "don't be too nervous", but I think having moderate amounts of stress has its advantage.

'After we won we had a hug and she (Wang) said to me that she had always dreamed of this.'
