Clockwise from above left: Gold medalist and world record holder Pan Zhanle of China is flanked by silver medalist Kyle Chalmers of Australia and bronze medalist David Popovici of Romania on the podium of the men's 100m freestyle; women's badminton silver medalist He Bingjiao of China holds a pin of the Spanish flag in tribute to Spaniard Carolina Marin, who was forced to withdraw due to injury, sending He into the final; women's diving 3m springboard winner Chen Yiwen of China poses with runner-up Maddison Keeney of Australia and third place Chang Yani of China; ROK's bronze medalist Lim Jong-hoon takes a selfie with gold medal winners from China and silver medalists from the DPRK. Another wonderful — and literal — snapshot of the Games was that of China's mixed doubles table tennis gold medalist Sun Yingsha directing an impromptu podium photo shoot with teammate Wang Chuqin and the silver medalists from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Ri Jong-sik and Kim Kumyong, and the bronze medalists from the Republic of Korea, Shin Yu-bin and Lim Jong-hoon.
