Minibaev was locked in a close battle with China’s Song Yuan throughout the competition at the Neptun-Schwimmhalle.

He held his nerve in the final round, however, to edge his rival to gold, with 483.75 points proving enough to top the standings.

Song was narrowly behind on 482.95 but was left settling for second place.

The podium was completed by Ukraine’s Oleksii Sereda, who scored 453.75 to win the bronze medal.

Sereda’s team-mates Stanislav Oliferchyk and Victoriya Kesar claimed victory in the mixed 3m synchronised springboard event.

The duo were awarded a score of 281.97 points from the judges.

Japan’s Shuta Yamada and Hazuki Miyamoto finished as the runners-up on 271.20 and Germany’s Lena Hentschel and Lou Massenberg were third with 268.80.

It meant disappointment for the Chinese pairing of Yu Ouyang and Depeng Ma, who scored 267.33 points to end fourth.

Yu had already secured a gold medal on the final day of action, topping the standings in the women’s 3m synchronised springboard competition with Jiahan Hu.

The pairing achieved a score of 295.50 points, with Russia’s Uliana Kliueva and Vitaliia Koroleva following in second place on 289.20.
