This was expected to be a race for gold between David Boudia of the United States and Qiu Bo of China, who won gold and silver, respectively, at London in 2012. 

But Qiu dug himself an early deficit after he recorded just a 47.25 on a second-round dive, which dropped him from second place after the first round to last. 

His Chinese teammate Chen took responsibility for pursuing Boudia and overtook him in the third round with a 102.60 to build a 14.05-point lead.

But Qiu made up for his horrid second-round dive with a fantastic 102.00 mark in the third round to get back into the middle of the pack. He upped it even more in the fourth round with a 102.60, moving back up to the top three.

It didn't last long, though, as inconsistencies dropped him off the podium and into sixth place. 

Chen claimed a 17-point lead after four rounds, as Boudia was consistently solid but couldn't put up a huge score through four dives.

That big score finally came in the fifth round with a 102.60, but he couldn't gain any ground thanks to Chen's monster dive of 105.45 to open a 19-point lead.

It all came undone for Boudia in the final round, though. He entered the pool crooked on a forward 4.5 somersault attempt, which garnered a score of 68.45. Because of that, he left the door open for Mexico's German Sanchez, whose final dive of 91.20 surpassed the American for silver. 

Boudia had to settle for bronze, while Chen capped off his day with a 108.00 on his last dive to clinch his second Olympic gold in Rio.
