She is a five-time Olympic gold medalist (2008, 2012 and 2016), ten-time World championship medalist (including six golds), nine-time World Cup medalist (eight golds), four-time Asian Games medalist (three golds) and two-time Universiade gold medalist, making her one of the most accomplished female divers in history.[1]

After retiring from the sport in 2016 due to neck injury,[2] Chen became a diving coach in 2021 and has been personally training 2020 Olympic gold medalist Quan Hongchan and multi-FINA world champion Lian Junjie, who have since both won gold medals at the 2024 Summper Olympics in Paris.[3]

Career

Chen was born in Nantong, Jiangsu. She won the gold medals in the women's 10m platform and 10m synchronized platform at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing for Team China, then duplicated the double gold performance at the London 2012 Summer Olympics.[4]

In the 2011 World Aquatics Championships held in Shanghai, Chen won two gold medals for Women's 10 m platform and Women's 10 m synchro platform (partnering Wang Hao). She became the first Chinese female diver who claimed all the gold medals in women's platform events in Olympic Games, World Cup and World Championships.

In 2014, she lit the torch at the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics in the Nanjing Olympic Sports Centre.

In the 2016 Summer Olympics she won her fifth Olympic gold medal at the 10m synchronised platform event with her partner Liu Huixia, and became only the third Chinese athlete to win five Olympic gold medals.

In October 2016 Chen announced her retirement from diving due to a neck injury.
