BUDAPEST, June 19 (Xinhua) — China's pair Wang Liuyi and Wang Qianyi clinched the title in the women's duet technical in artistic swimming at the 19th FINA World Championships here on Sunday.
The 25-year-old twins led the field of 12 pairs in the final with 93.7536 points (execution 28.2000, impression 28.4000, elements 37.1536).
The Wang twins were favorites, having won the gold medal for the women's team free combination five years ago at the 17th FINA World Championships.
