Quan Hongchan (Chinese: 全红婵; pinyin: Quán Hóngchán;[2] born 28 March 2007) is a Chinese diver, national champion, and Olympic champion.[3] At the 2020 Summer Olympics, she won the gold medal in the individual 10 metre platform event.[4] At the 2024 Summer Olympics, Quan won the gold medal in the individual 10 metre platform event and, alongside teammate Chen Yuxi, also won gold in the 10 metre synchronized platform.
Quan's dives have been notable for receiving perfect scores of 10 and producing minimal splash. A new phrase was created to describe her performances: "water splash disappearance technique".[5]
In August 2021, Quan was awarded the "Chinese Youth May Fourth Medal" by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League and the All-China Youth Federation. In September, she was awarded the "National Advanced Worker and Model Worker in the National Sports System" as an athlete; in the same month, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions awarded Quan the National May Day Labor Medal.
