Chinese diver Chen Aisen is one of the biggest enigmas at the Rio Olympics. Although he might seem like a newcomer to the scene, the 20-year-old 10-meter platform diver from Guangdong has been a staple of synchronized diving since early 2009.The Chinese national diving team has a history of giving their divers a chance on the individual stage after their synchronized careers take flight in either regional events or FINAs World Series.Take Lin Yue, Aisens current partner on the platform who took gold in the 2008 Olympic synchronized event. Yue received a chance on the individual stage four years later in London, albeit to disappointing results. Although synchronized divers have rarely seen the same level of success on the individual stage, Aisens performance in Rio on Friday in the 10-meter platform might just be the most anticipated.Falling behindAisen rarely saw the podium in individual events in 2009 and 10, lagging behind his peers, such as the explosive Huo Liang (who won the synchronized gold in the 2008 Olympics alongside Lin Yue) and the dynamic Zhou Luxin.Aisen always was one step behind. In the language of diving, thatd be a decimal place in the degree of difficulty, which can mean the difference between being a good diver and a great diver. Although Aisen never underperformed at a Chinese regional event -- the most competitive region in the world -- he never quite shined, either. He was always somewhere in between, stuck in a limbo of mediocrity.In a recent video detailing his Olympic journey, Aisen admitted sheepishly that Lin Yue had to compensate with easier dives in order for them to compete together. Aisen cheerfully and modestly admitted that hed been a bit of a nuisance. But that cheerful smile belied a competitive streak.Raising the stakesAisen broke out on the individual platform in 2014, and then he toppled the greats in 2015, proving that he could stand toe-to-toe with the best divers in the world. He raised the stakes, upping the degree of difficulty at each event, even besting fellow teammate Qiu Bo during the 2016 FINA World Series in three out of four legs.When Lin Yue received his chance to perform on the individual stage in London, he was plagued with injuries. Anxiety and uncertainty preceded his performance. At one point, he had to take a month of bed rest, which can be disastrous for a diver.But this year Aisen is healthy and in the prime of his diving career. Based on the most recent results, he might just be the sleeper favorite for the individual 10-meter event.On the surface, Qiu Bo might still be the king, but dont count out Aisen. Sure, the narrative buzzing around the 10-meter platform involves Qius rivalry with American diver David Boudia. But if you blink, you might just miss Aisen taking home the gold.

A knee to the thigh might have stung him the most, but his sixth straight double-double made up for the brief burst of pain. OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Oakland Raiders keep finding new ways to win late in games, while the San Diego Chargers somehow manage to find even more painful ways to lose.Derek Carr threw a go-ahead 21-yard touchdown pass to Michael Crabtree on a fourth-and-2 gamble and the Raiders survived when the Chargers botched a potential tying kick late in a 34-31 win Sunday.Sometimes you just have to find ways to win and get it done at the end, Carr said. It would be nice if we didnt have to do all the stress and drama at the end. That would be nice.After using a late 2-point conversion to win the opener, stopping a late Tennessee drive in a Week 3 win and using a late score and defensive stop to beat Baltimore last week, the Raiders (4-1) survived against the Chargers (1-4) to post their first three-game winning streak in five years.Philip Rivers threw his fourth TD pass of the game to cut a 10-point lead to three midway through the fourth and then drove San Diego down the field late. But after Melvin Gordon was held to 1 yard on third-and-2, coach Mike McCoy opted for a 36-yard field goal.Mike Windts snap was on target, but rookie Drew Kaser couldnt get down the hold and the Chargers never got a chance at the tie.You cant make this stuff up, Rivers said. You think, `Is there any other way we can find a way to do this?The Chargers had already lost three games they led at the two-minute warning, blowing a 21-point lead to Kansas City and a 13-point fourth-quarter advantage last week versus New Orleans.Then came the latest loss that included four turnovers and the botched kick, leading to a 10th straight division loss.Just when you think youve seen it all, something like that happens, McCoy said.COOPER SCORES: Raiders receiver Amari Cooper hadnt scored a touchdown in four games before breaking through against the Chargers. He scored on a 64-yard pass from Carr in the third quarter and added a 2-point conversion after Crabtrees TD. Cooper also nearly had three more scores, but couldnt get both feet down inbounds on two throws into the end zone and was unable to re-establissh himself after being interfered with on a third play.ddddddddddddFirst one is always the hardest, no matter what it is, Carr said. Im just happy for him because he works his tail off.BOSAS DEBUT: Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa made an impressive debut after missing training camp during a nasty contract dispute and sitting out the first four games with a hamstring injury. He came in on the second drive and had a sack and a tackle for loss. He added a second sack in the fourth quarter.It felt pretty natural, Bosa said. Its nice to get the butterflies out because I was pretty nervous coming into this game.BIG PLAY ROOKIE: First-round pick Karl Joseph, who started the season on the bench in Oakland, has made a big impact since becoming a starter in Week 3. He intercepted a pass from Rivers late in the first half to set up a field goal and then recovered a fumble by Gordon to set up Crabtrees TD.LEAKY D: Despite the win, the Raiders allowed more than 400 yards for the fourth time in five games. Big plays were the problem in this game as the Chargers had three passes go for at least 50 yards.Were not even close to the standard we need to be at, linebacker Bruce Irvin said. Whatd we give up today, 400 yards or something? Thats bad. Happy about the win, but Im not in a good mood about how we performed.GIVE IT AWAY: After committing turnovers on the final three drives in last weeks loss to New Orleans , the Chargers picked up where they left off. Antonio Gates was stripped on San Diegos first drive and lost a fumble with the Chargers in position to score. Rivers then was intercepted by Sean Smith on a deep pass on the Chargers next play from scrimmage. Rivers threw another interception late in the half, giving San Diego six turnovers in eight possessions. San Diego committed a fourth turnover late in the third quarter when Gordon fumbled, setting up Oaklands go-ahead score.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
