RIO DE JANEIRO -- China won its seventh gold in eight diving events at the Rio Olympics, showing off the superpowers depth with a less heralded champion in mens 10-meter platform.Chen Aisen claimed the title with 585.30 points Saturday night, displaying the greatest consistency throughout the six-round contest. Three times he topped 100 points on his dives, closing the contest with one that earned perfect scores of 10.I never thought I would get this medal for diving and I am still in a state of shock, he said through a translator.Chen hit a back 2 1/2 somersaults with 2 + twists, barely making a splash as he sliced the water for 108.00 points -- the highest score of anyone in the final.Theres a lot of young guns in this sport now, defending champion David Boudia said, and its cool to see them step up their game.Chen had never won a major international 10-meter individual title, having more success in synchronized platform, winning gold in Rio and at last years world championships. The 20-year-old diver gave China its first win in the event since 2004.Its because he didnt really think a lot so he performed well, said Chens teammate Qiu Bo, who finished sixth. His example gave me the feeling that I have nothing to be upset about because its the Olympic Games and its either him or me who gets the gold medal. Its all the same because we are all Chinese.German Sanchez of Mexico earned silver at 532.70 for his countrys first individual mens medal since Fernando Platas won silver on 3-meter springboard at the 2000 Sydney Games.This means everything. A few times people didnt believe in me. A few times people have talked bad about me and now this, Sanchez said. I kept hearing chants of `Mexico, Mexico and this really helped me out a lot. It felt like a Lucha Libre fight, which I love.Boudia took bronze at 525.25. The American was second going into his last dive, but missed on a forward 4 + somersaults.This dive has been like a thorn in my side the past four years, Boudia said. My takeoff is absolutely perfect and I cannot find the bottom to save the life of me, obviously. I chose to do it at the very end of this competition because I wanted that pressure. I live off those nerves. It didnt go my way this time.His score of 68.45 was his worst of the night and he had to watch anxiously for nine other divers to finish before knowing hed gotten on the podium again.Youre doing 18 dives off a three-story building, your bodys beat up, youre tired, mentally exhausted, Boudia said. Im glad to be standing here with a bronze medal around my neck.Qiu earned silver four years ago in London, when Boudia narrowly defeated him. He was second after his first dive and then botched his second and fifth dives, leaving him too far back to medal again.Im a little bit upset about that, but I think it is necessary to have this kind of failure and pain, Qiu said through a translator. This shows the value of the medal and the value of my dream.Tom Daley of Britain, who was third in London, surprisingly didnt make the final. He led after the preliminaries, but finished last among 18 divers in the semifinals.The only gold the Chinese missed was in mens synchronized 3-meter, won by Britain. China settled for bronze to go with silvers in womens 3-meter and 10-meter. Wu Minxia became the most decorated female diver in Olympic history, winning synchro springboard for her fifth gold and seventh career medal.The U.S. finished with three medals, all in mens competition. Boudia and Steele Johnson took silver in synchro platform and Sam Dorman and Mike Hixon won silver in synchro springboard. Tommy McDonald Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. Dallas Goedert Youth Jersey .

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Arizona Coyotes locked up two of their best young defenseman on Thursday, signing Connor Murphy to a six-year contract and Michael Stone to a one-year dealMurphys deal is for $23.1 million with a salary cap hit of $3.85 million. Stones deal, which allows him and the team to avoid a salary arbitration hearing next week, is worth $4 million.Were happy to get these two guys signed, Coyotes general manager John Chayka said. Both right shots, which are obviously difficult to find. Both had good years, career years last year and really bought into what the coaching staff was trying to preach with more involvement from the back end in our offense and moving pucks more efficiently.Murphy elevated his game last season, often pairing with All-Star Oliver Ekman-Larsson, and led Team USA with three goals during this years world championships.The 23-year-old had six goals and 11 assists in 78 games with the Coyotes in 2015-16, his second ffull NHL season.dddddddddddd He has 11 goals and 21 assists in 181 career games after being drafted with the 20th overall pick of the 2011 NHL draft.I cant say enough about how fortunate I am to have a management and ownership and team that believes in me and puts trust in where they think Im going to be, Murphy said.The 26-year-old Stone had six goals and set a career high with 36 points last season. He also led the team with 143 blocked shots despite suffering season-ending ACL and MCL injuries in late March.Stone has 23 goals and 64 assists in 279 career NHL games, all with the Coyotes.I would love to be here long term. Thats a goal (but) things are a little uncertain with my injury, Stone said. The one-year deal is going to give me a chance to prove myself and hopefully, we can look at something longer down the road. ' ' '
