Hu Yadan, a 13-year-old girl from Sichuan Province, earned a gold medal Tuesday in women's 10-meter platform at the All-Star Diving Series Jinan stop.
Olympic champion Chen Ruolin finished with bronze due to an unexpected failure in her last attempt.
Since the adoption of a brand new match system which comprised of four separate rounds, it became almost impossible to guess the results as to who will laugh the last. In the final round, Hu scored the highest marks.
Chen won a gold medal in Changshu stop four days ago, yet her last dive stirred too much splash, earning 76.80 points which had her slip into the third place. After the competition, Chen said that a momentary relax should be accounted for her misplay.
In the men's 3-meter springboard in the afternoon, Olympic champion He Chong pocketed the gold medal, followed by Li Shixin from the Chinese naval and Matthew Mitcham from Australia.
