Chang Yani led a Chinese 1-2 in the women's three-metre springboard to give her country an eighth diving gold at the World Aquatics championships on Friday.

Chang, 22, scored 354.75 points after five dives to finish 18.15 points ahead of 24-year-old compatriot Chen Yiwen.

The pair also went 1-2 in last year's worlds, but in the reverse order with Chen taking the gold and Chang silver.

They also won the three-metre synchronised springboard title together in Doha.

South Korea's Kim Su-ji scored 311.25 pts to take bronze on Friday. (AFP)
