GUANGZHOU, Nov 25 (AFP): China claimed its seventh gold out of seven in Asian Games diving Thursday when 14-year-old Hu Yadan took the women's 10 metre platform title.
Teammate Wang Hao claimed silver, while Malaysia's Rinong Pandelela won the bronze.
The 1.45 metre tall (four-foot-seven-inch) Hu's Asiad gold follows her win at a diving Grand Prix event in Madrid last year when she surprised the world with her dexterity and pedigree.
China remain on target to bag all 10 gold medals on offer.
