On the evening of August 9, the women's single 3-meter springboard finals of the Paris Olympics diving event were held. In the semifinals the day before, Chinese athletes Chen Yiwen and Chang Yani advanced with first and fourth place respectively. Prior to this, the two had just won the women's double 3-meter springboard championship together.

Chen Yiwen performed steadily in the competition, scoring more than 70 points in the first three jumps to maintain her lead, and even got the highest score of 77.50 in the fourth jump. In the end, she won the championship with a total score of 376.00 points, 32.90 points more than the runner-up. This is also her second gold medal in this Olympics.

That night, in Chen Yiwen's hometown of Zhongshan, Guangdong, her parents, relatives, friends, and teachers and students from her alma mater, Zhongshan Sports School, gathered together to watch the competition in real time. Chen Yiwen's mother, Sun Mingyin, came to cheer in a cheongsam. After Chen Yiwen's fifth jump, she secured the championship. Her parents, sister, and Zhongshan Sports School's first coach all stood up excitedly and hugged each other to celebrate.

Chen Yiwen's father, Chen Junfeng, watched the competition from the preliminaries to the finals. "I felt that Yiwen was in good condition, so I knew what she was going to do after her third jump today. Congratulations to my daughter for winning glory for Zhongshan and the motherland." Chen Junfeng also revealed that Chen Yiwen had high expectations for her performance in the Olympics and hoped to achieve a breakthrough in scores, which put her under a lot of pressure. Therefore, he and his wife rarely sent messages to their daughter during the competition, not wanting to disturb her. But after the semi-finals, Chen Junfeng still sent her two lines of words, hoping to encourage her: "Daughter, be calm, comfortable, and calm just like today." Chen Yiwen replied "OK", and in the finals, she also gave the most perfect answer.

After winning the women's singles 3-meter springboard championship at the Paris Olympics, Chen Yiwen also won the "Grand Slam" of gold medals in the World Cup, World Championships, and Olympics. Chen Junfeng said that the child had suffered a lot along the way, and when she returned home, he wanted to hug her the most.
