The 23-year-old held off the challenge of two Chinese divers throughout the five rounds of the women’s three metre springboard competition.

A strong display saw the home favourite accumulate a total of 338.25 points from her five dives, narrowly enough to top the podium.

The two-time Asian Games silver medallist ended ahead of China’s Wang Han, who scored 333.60 points.

Yee's victory saw her become the third Malaysian to earn a gold medal at a Grand Prix, with Pandelela Rinong and Cheong Jun Hoong having previously achieved the feat.

Wang’s team-mate Huang Xiaohui completed the top three positions, earning 322.30 points for her dives.

China were back on top in the women’s 10m synchronised platform event, with their third gold of the event earned by Xia Yujie and Xia Bing Qing.

The pair secured victory with a total of 332.34 points, the United States’ Tarrin Gilliland and Delaney Schnell ending some way down on 288.48.

It was enough for the American pair to earn the silver medal as only two teams competed in the competition.

There was a similar story in the men’s 10m synchronised platform event, where a Chinese pair overcame Russian opposition to win the two-team competition.

Xu Zewei and Yang Hao triumphed with a total of 426.54 points, while Russia’s Belevtsev Aleksandr and Bondar Aleksandr finished with 381.18.

China’s third title of the day was earned by Huang Bowen and Xie Siyi after they scored 415.20 points in the men’s three metres synchronised springboard, another event featuring only two competitors. 

Ooi Tze Liang and Chew Yi Wei of Malaysia earned silver by scoring 394.71 points.
