China's Yang Jian has equalled his own world record score for a single dive while competing at the World Series in Beijing.

The 21-year-old posted a score of 123.00 in his final dive during the showpiece men's 10m platform event en route to the gold medal.

The notoriously tricky dive - a forward 4-1/2 somersault pike, with a 4.1 degree of difficulty - earned him the maximum possible score after the judges awarded him perfect 10s.

Yang previously set the world record with the same dive while competing in London last year. Watch his 2014 performance of the manoeuvre below:
