China's Huo Liang clinched his third successive world title in the men's 10-metres synchronised platform diving on Sunday, giving the host nation their second gold medal of the world swimming championships.
Huo and new partner Qiu Bo ran away with the gold medal on 480.03 points, while Germany's Patrick Hausding and Sascha Klein finished second on 443.01 points and Ukraine's Oleksander Gorshkovozov and Oleksander Bondar were third on 435.36.
The 21-year-old Huo had won his previous two world championships and the 2008 Beijing Olympics with Lin Yue and had only started training with Qiu two months ago after Lin was forced out with injury.
Their victory follows that of compatriots Wu Minxia and He Zi, who won the women's 3-metres synchronised springboard gold on Saturday.
