Canadian divers Benfeito, Filion win bronze in Rio synchro event


The win puts her on a par with compatriot Wu Minxia for the title of most Olympic diving gold medals in a career. By Jonathan Rumley, CBC SportsCanadians Meaghan Benfeito and Roseline Filion repeated as bronze medallists in the Olympic women's synchronized 10-metre platform diving event in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday. The Canadians received the same score in their second dive and sat in second place with a combined score of 105.60. The 27-year-old Benfeito and 29-year-old Filion, who both call Laval, Que., home, also won bronze in the 10m synchro event four years ago at the London Olympics.
