MONTREAL \u2013 Katelyn Fung and Kate Miller claimed their first international podium finish as a team in the synchronized 10-metre event at the Montreal Diving World Cup on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The two Ontario athletes earned their best scores on their final two of five dives (69.12 and 73.92 points). Their total of 296.94 points placed them just ahead of the Australians (293.22), who were provisionally second with one dive remaining.<\/p>\n

The gold medal went to Lu Wei and Zhang Minjie of China (349.98), while the silver was awarded to Jo Jin Mi and Kim Mi Hwa of North Korea (304.92).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really amazing, and such a great reward. It shows how hard we\u2019ve worked in training. We don\u2019t live in the same place, but (Miller) comes here to train, so we take advantage of that to prepare ourselves well,\u201d said Fung, who hails from London but trains at the National Centre in Montreal.<\/p>\n

Miller is a student at the University of Southern California, but she plans to be in Montreal more frequently to train with her partner in advance of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast year was the first time we dove as a team, so it\u2019s incredible for us to have won a medal in our second year together. We have a pretty good idea of what we\u2019ll be able to accomplish in our next competition,\u201d said Miller, who is from Ottawa. She hoped to ride Saturday\u2019s momentum into the women\u2019s 10-metre individual final on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Also on Saturday, Nathan Zsombor-Murray and Carson Paul (389.55) competed as a team in the men\u2019s synchronized three-metres event for the first time. The pair came close to claiming the third spot on the podium, but fell short by just 4.11 points and finished fourth, just behind Anthony Harding and Jack Laugher of Great Britain (393.66).<\/p>\n

The gold medal went to Wang Zongyuan and Zheng Jiuyuan of China (461.37), while the silver medal was claimed by Juan Celaya Hernandez and Osmar Olvera Ibara of Mexico (441.63).<\/p>\n
