China claim two golds and one bronze on second day of Artistic Swimming World Cup in Canada

China added two golds and one bronze on the second day of the third stop of the World Aquatics Artistic Swimming World Cup in Markham, Canada.

In Friday's women's solo free final, Xu Huiyan delivered an impeccable performance to capture the title with 218.8438 points, more than 18 points clear of second-placed Mari Alavidze of Georgia. The victory marked the second gold medal for Xu at this event, after the 19-year-old also won the solo technical title on Thursday.

In the men's solo free final, China's Guo Muye claimed the gold medal with a score of 192.7988 points. The 16-year-old was the youngest amongst the six finalists, but his strength and skills were on full display in a routine to traditional Chinese music. Mexico's Diego Villalobos Carrillo and Britain's Ranjuo Tomblin rounded out the podium.

In the women's duet technical final, twin sisters Lin Yanhan and Lin Yanjun added bronze for China with 279.5150 points, while Austrian sisters Anna-Maria Alexandri and Eirini-Marina Alexandri clinched the title, with Spain's Txell Ferre Gaset and Lilou Lluis Valette finishing as runners-up.
