Canadian teenager Summer McIntosh won another gold medal on Monday as she bids to make history at the World Aquatics Championships while Great Britain claimed a diving bronze.

After winning the women's 400m freestyle final on Sunday, McIntosh has a chance to equal Michael Phelps' record of five individual titles at a single world championships.

Her second final was in the 200m individual medley, and the 18-year-old won in two minutes 6.69 seconds, with American Alex Walsh second and Canada's Mary-Sophie Harvey third.

Great Britain's Abbie Wood, 26, finished sixth as McIntosh stayed on course for a full house in Singapore.

The three-time Olympic champion is also set to race in the 400m individual medley, 800m freestyle and 200m butterfly, with the latter being her next event on Wednesday.

British divers Jack Laugher and Anthony Harding won bronze in the men's 3m synchronised final in what was almost a repeat of last year's Olympic podium.

They were again third with a score of 405.33, while Mexico's Juan Celaya and Osmar Olvera were again second (449.28).

But China's Olympic champion Wang Zongyuan has a new partner, Zheng Jiuyuan, and they proved too strong with 467.31.

Maisie Bond and Lois Toulson were fifth in the women's 10m synchro final, as was fellow Briton Ben Proud in the men's 50m butterfly.
