I trusted in (Zhu) for Dive 109C and Dive 5255B and I trusted that we would be able to close it out. These are not difficult for him, and in training we\u2019re not bad.

Zhu has mixed 3-meter synchro gold from 2022 and 2023, but this is his first Worlds medal on platform.<\/p>\n<p>One need not worry about such intrigue in the women\u2019s 3-meter synchro. Chen and Chen of China led after every round and had the highest-scoring dive of each of the five rounds to tally 325.20.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the ninth medal and eighth goal for Chen Yiwen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s been a smooth competition for us,\u201d she said. \u201cWe were quite nervous during training these few days and were a bit tight. I think that affected the competition a little bit; we were a little conservative. I guess you can say we\u2019re quite a good partnership. We\u2019re all high-level athletes, and we know how to handle things, our chemistry, and do what we need to do for a competition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Britain\u2019s <strong>Yasmin Harper<\/strong> and <strong>Scarlett Mew<\/strong> <strong>Jensen,<\/strong> the bronze medalists in Paris last summer, were second to China with a score of 298.35, four points clear of the Mexico\u2019s <strong>Lia Cueva Lobato<\/strong> and <strong>Mia Cueva Lobato,<\/strong> 14-year-old twins.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re very happy and really pleased,\u201d Harper said. \u201cComing off the back of last year\u2019s Olympic medal, we were definitely setting the expectation of a medal again.
