RIO DE JANEIRO， Aug. 8 (Xinhua) -- China continued their gold rush on the third matchday at the Rio Olympics as star swimmer Sun Yang and divers Lin YueChen Aisen won two gold medals on Monday.
Sun clinched his third Olympic gold medal by winning the men's 200m freestyle in 1 minute 44.65 seconds， 0.55sec ahead of South Africa's Chad le Clos with the USA's Conor Dwyer 0.58sec further back.
It was China's first swimming gold medal of the Rio Games and Sun was the first Chinese swimmer to win the Olympic men's 200 metres freestyle gold medal.
"In the past I always got silvers in the event， and finally I broke the jinx，" said the 24-year-old Sun， who's silver medalist in 2013 and 2015 world championships as well as in the London Games four years ago.
In celebrating his triumph， Sun took off his swimming cap and attempted to throw it to Chinese supporters in the crowd above him， but it landed in the pool and he had to retrieve it.
"It's not easy as the opponents pushed me hard from the beginning， but the pressure did not crush me. I'm very happy that I made breakthrough for my team and my country，" added Sun.
Hungary's Katinka Hosszu grabbed her second gold medal of the Rio Olympics by winning the women's 100m backstroke. On Sunday Hosszu won the gold medal and broke the world record in the 400m individual medley.

Lin and Chen secured China's second diving gold medal by winning the men's synchronized 10m platform.
Lin and Chen posted an overall score of 496.98 points to finish ahead of US pair David BoudiaSteele Johnson (457.11) and Britain's Thomas DaleyDaniel Goodfellow (444.45).
It was Lin's second Olympic gold medal in the event after his victory at the Beijing 2008 Games alongside Huo Liang.

In weightlifting， Oscar Albeiro Figueroa Mosquera of Colombia won the men's 62kg gold medal and became the first male Olympic champion in his country.
Mosquera's gold medal was Colombia's third in Olympic history.
Mosquera， silver medalist at the London Olympics， snatched 142kg and jerked up 176kg for a winning total of 318kg for the top honor.
"This is the best thing I could have ever expected， for my country and for my family. I am just very happy，" said the 33-year-old Mosquera.
Gold medal favorite Chen Lijun from China was forced to quit the competition due to calf cramps.
Chen， the world record holder for the total and jerk， suddenly felt uncomfortable just 10 minutes before he began his first snatch attempt at 143kg.
"Both of my legs were as stiff as stone. I even couldn't start the snatch，" said the 23-year-old Chen.
"I was not nervous at all， and I don't think losing weight before the competition caused the cramp. I was confident about winning the gold，" he added.
