China clinch two more gold medals at the World Aquatics Championships

China added two more gold medals to its diving tally at the World Aquatics Championships on Tuesday.

Chen Yiwen and Chen Jia, a newly formed pair, captured gold in the women's synchronized 3-meter springboard with 325.20 points. Scarlett Mew Jensen and Yasmin Harper of Britain earned silver with 298.35, while 14-year-old twins Lia and Mia Cueva Lobato of Mexico took the bronze.

"Today wasn't about standout dives, but everything went quite smoothly. We delivered what we had been doing in training," said Chen Yiwen, who claimed her fourth consecutive world title in the event.

The men's synchronized 10m platform final proved far more dramatic. Young Chinese pair Cheng Zilong and Zhu Zifeng suffered a major setback in the fourth round after a flawed execution of their dive, dropping from first to third and trailing the leaders by over 20 points.

However, the duo showed remarkable composure in the final round, producing a high-quality closing dive that earned them a total of 429.63 points, edging out their nearest rivals by just 0.93 points to secure the gold.

Russia's Ruslan Ternovoi and Nikita Shleikher claimed silver, while the American pair of Joshua Hedberg and Carson Tyler got bronze.
