Wang Anqi/Wang Yao brought the fifth diving gold for China as they triumphed in the men's 10-meter platform synchro at the 2015 Gwangju Summer University Games on Tuesday.
The newly paired Chinese collected 467.00 points from six solid dives to win the gold, while Kim Jin-yong/Kim Yeong-nam of South Korea surpassed Egor Galperin/Igor Mialin of Russia in the last dive to clinch the silver with 402.96 points.
Galperin/Mialin brought home a bronze with 401.64 points.
"There were only five pairs in the final today and I made a mistake in the fourth dive. I'm lucky it didn't effect our ranking," said Wang Anqi.
"I competed abroad before, but I think the Universiade is the happiest experience I have ever had," he added.
"I paird up with Wang Yao for only one month," he said, "We didn't do good synchronization today." Endit
