China's diving squad continued its golden streak at the World Aquatics Championships in Singapore this week, clinching two more titles in dramatic fashion. The dynamic duo of Wang Zongyuan and Zheng Jiuyuan soared to victory in the men's 3m synchronized springboard, while their teammates made waves in the women's 10m platform synchro event.
Wang and Zheng, competing as first-time partners, delivered a masterclass with a near-flawless 467.31-point performance. 🎯 Their precision left Mexico's silver medalists and Britain's bronze-winning pair trailing in their splash zone. "Every dive felt like leveling up in a video game," Zheng told reporters post-win, referencing his back-to-back victories. 🎮
For three-time world champion Wang, this win marked his fourth consecutive crown in the event. The Olympic gold medalist admitted: "New partnerships bring new pressures, but we turned nerves into rocket fuel!" 🚀
