China Cleans up at FINA Diving Grand Prix in Thailand

Chinese divers had a clean sweep at the third FINA diving grand prix finals held in Bangkok over the weekend, taking all four titles from as many events.

Hu Jia won the men's 10m platform event Sunday by defeating Russian competitor Igor Loukachine, while Guo Jingling claimed the gold in the women's 3m springboard, with compatriot Wu Min Xia coming in second.

On Saturday, 16-year-old Sang Xue was victorious in the women's 10m platform event and 13-year-old Xu Mian came in second.

It was Sang's first competition since the Sydney Olympics, where she clinched the gold medal in the same category.

Wang Tianling and Peng Bo continued China's dominance in the men's 3m springboard, finishing in first and second place.
