Shi Tingmao won another gold medal for China when she won the women's 3-meter springboard final Friday at the World Aquatics Championships in the South Korean city of Gwangju. This is not only her third straight victory as well as the 10th consecutive gold for Chinese divers in the event.

Shi's teammate Wang Han took the silver medal while Maddison Keeney from Australia got the bronze.

Chinese athletes have been dominating the women's 3-meter springboard for a long time. The country's diving queen Guo Jingjing pocketed all the World Championships golds in the event between 2001 and 2009, a record that no one has matched.

The biggest rival of Shi, 27, was her teammate Wang who already had two silvers in the event under her name.

Shi proved why she's still China's ace diver in women's 3-meter springboard by leading all the way through the five jumps. Moreover, Shi was the leader in every single round on points except the fourth.

She told CCTV that a waist injury has been bothering her the whole time and she took some painkillers before the final. Having collected so many golds in the event did not seem to excite her too much. "This is just proof that I have worked hard and nothing more. I don’t want it to become a heavy load on my mind. I have met one of my small targets this year and now I am looking at next year…my ultimate goal is at the 2020 Summer Olympics," said Shi.
