He Yanwei and Lu Wei secured the first gold medal for the Chinese delegation in the women’s synchronized 10-meter platform diving, as the Rhine-Ruhr 2025 FISU World University Games competitions kicked off on Thursday.

He and Lu delivered a composed and steady performance throughout the competition, extending their lead gradually with seamless coordination and consistent excellence. The duo led in every one of the five rounds, accumulating a total of 330.18 points – more than 30 points ahead of the silver medalists from Germany.

Despite having trained together for less than two weeks, He and Lu demonstrated good teamwork. He commented, “As long as both divers have solid individual techniques, coordination isn’t that difficult.”
