Canadian diving duo Mia Vallée, Margo Erlam fall short of podium on final day of worlds

Canadian diving duo Mia Vallée and Margo Erlam fell short of the podium on the final day of the world aquatics championships in Budapest, Hungary, with a fifth-place finish in the women's three-metre synchro springboard final.

The Canadians entered the final round in fourth place with a shot at the podium following some strong dives, but their final dive was not enough to hold off a talented field.

Canada finished with 289.90 points, while China's Chen Yiwen and Chang Yani captured gold with 341.14. Japan's Rin Kaneto and Sayaka Mikamifinish claimed silver with 303 points, while bronze went to Australia's Maddison Keeney and Anabelle Smith (294.12).

Canada leaves these worlds with three diving medals, improving upon the pair won in 2019. Canada finished with 14 medals overall (three gold, five silver, six bronze) after winning a national record 11 in swimming last week.
