SHANGHAI, China -- Canadas Jennifer Abel and Pamela Ware won the silver medal in the womens three-metre synchro event Wednesday at the FINA World Cup diving competition. Minxia Wu and Shi Tingmao of China won the gold medal at the years biggest competition in the sport with 340.50 points. The Canadians followed at 318.33 and Maddison Keeney and Anabelle Smith of Australia were third in 310.14. "We couldnt be happier," said Abel, an Olympic bronze medallist on three-metre synchro with Emilie Heymans at the 2012 Olympics. "We showed a lot of stability in our dives and we stayed calm throughout the entire competition." Abel, from Laval Que., and Ware, from Beloeil, Que., bettered by one spot their result at last years FINA World Championships in Barcelona. They have won nine medals in 12 international events since joining forces last season. "The key was our compulsory dives," said Abel. "Usually we are trailing behind the others after those dives but today we were in the thick of the battle. Even though we hadnt competed in over a month we maintained our strong performances from earlier this season." On mens 10-metre synchro, Yue Lin and Yuan Cao of China were the winners with 494.46 points. Sascha Klein and Patrick Hausding of Germany were second at 444.78 and David Boudia and Steele Johnson of the U.S. third at 414.42. Maxim Bouchard of St. Constant, Que., and 16-year-old Philippe Gagne of Montreal placed 11th. "It was an amazing and stressful competition at the same time," said Gagne, in his second season with Bouchard. "Id never competed before such a big crowd and against such tough competition. But we came through it with a very satisfying performance. Theres probably only one dive we would want back." Competition continues Thursday with the womens 10-metre synchro final featuring Olympic bronze medallists Meaghan Benfeito of Montreal and Roseline Filion of Laval as well as the mens three-metre synchro with Gagne and Francois Imbeau-Dulac of St-Lazare, Que.

Its getting to that part of the season where its good because draws are no good to anybody, but I dont see anything other than a Tottenham win.Tottenham are a very good team and I expect them to keep the pressure on Leicester. They did very well when they had to play catch up with Bournemouth and beat them quite convincingly. If Leicester dont win then its a bonus.If Leicester do win, I think that will be it. Even if Tottenham also pick up three points, theyd still be seven points behind with five games to go, so for me, this weekend is the big weekend.PAUL PREDICTS: 3-1 (Sky Bet odds 14/1)BettingTottenham are 10/11 favourites with Sky Bet to maintain their title challenge with all three points against Manchester United (16/5).
