KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian diving pair Ooi Tze Liang-Chew Yiwei improved on their performance at the 2022 World Aquatics Championships after finishing 11th in the men's 3-metre synchronised springboard final in Budapest, Hungary last night.
In the competition at the Duna Arena, Tze Liang-Yiwei, who are 31st SEA Games gold medallists, performed consistently, but only managed to collect 337.83 points to finish in the second-last position, according to the official FINA website.
Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games gold medallists Wang Zongyuan-Cao Yuan from China topped the action with 459.18 points to win gold.
Great Britain's Jack Laugher-Anthony Harding took home the silver after grabbing 451.71 points while Lars Rudiger-Timo Barthel of Germany bagged the bronze with 406.44 points.
At the 2019 World Championships in South Korea, Tze Liang-Yiwei ended in last place out of 12 pairs.
Meanwhile, national diving queen Datuk Pandelela Rinong started well when she finished in the top four of the individual women's 10-metre platform qualifying round.
The 29-year-old diver collected 332.10 points from five dives to perch in fourth place out of a total of 33 divers and qualify for the semi-finals today.
The 16-year-old 2019 world champion and 2020 Tokyo Olympic silver medallist Chen Yuxi of China topped the round after scoring 413.95 points while her 15-year-old compatriot and Tokyo Olympic gold medallist Quan Hongchan finished in second place with 410.85 points.
