Lian Junjie seals China’s 100th straight Asian Games diving gold

Lian Junjie won the Asian Games men's 10m platform title at Tokyo Aquatic Centre on 30 September, scoring 501.25 points. Japan's Rikuto Tamai finished 4.05 points behind on 497.20, while China's Zhao Renjie took bronze with 427.50.

The result gave China all 10 diving titles at Aichi-Nagoya 2026 and extended a streak that began when the country entered the Asian Games in 1974. Chinese divers have now won 100 consecutive Asian Games gold medals across the sport's events.

Tamai's 93.60-point final dive kept the contest open until Lian's last attempt. The Olympic Council of Asia published the complete medal scores and milestone, which was independently reported by Reuters.
