Zakharov denies China

Russia's Ilya Zakharov ended China's hopes of a clean sweep of all eight diving gold medals al the London Olympics with a thrilling victory in the men's 3m
springboard final on Tuesday.
Zakharov pumped his fist in the air as soon as he resurfaced upon scoring a competition high 104.50 points on his last dive to claim the gold medal from Chinese pair Qin Kai and defending champion He Chong.
The 21-year-old from Leningrad kept his nerve to deny Qin the gold with a superlative closing forward four and a half somersault that brought a huge roar in the Aquatics Centre and left Qin shattered and in tears.
Zakharov, who finished runner-up behind He at last year's Shanghai world championships, totalled 555.90 from his six dives to take the gold ahead of Qin (541.75) and He (524.15).
Chinese divers had won all five events leading up to the men's springboard final and were on their way to go one better than their seven out of eight at the Beijing Games four years ago.
But they were denied the perfecta again, this time by Zakharov’s series of brilliant dives off the springboard.
It also ended a run of four Chinese victories in the Olympic springboard event going back to Atlanta 1996, while the last Russian to win was Vladimir Vasin with the former Soviet Union at Munich in 1972.
Qin only led Zahharov by 1.25 points into the last dive, and his 89.10 for a reverse two and a half somersault with one and a half twists proved not enough against the resilient Russian.
Zakharov, who look silver in the 3m synchronised springboard with Evgeny Kuznetsov behind China on Wednesday, separated the two Chinese divers as second to He among the top qualifiers after the morning semi-finals.
And he continued his blazing form in the final, handling the pressure of the closing round to give Russia the gold.
The Chinese pair had looked vulnerable throughout the semi-final and final as Zakharov and Mexican Yahel Castillo maintained the pressure with a siring of precision dives until Castillo cracked on his final dive.
Qin looked the better gold medal bet than I Ie, who struggled to reproduce his best form, and had worked his way from fourth after the second round to lead into the sixth round.
Yet he could not close out the victory, leaving Zakharov with the final crack at gold which he took with relish with the highest-scoring dive of the final, with two of seven
