The 17-year-old Minakov, winner of seven medals at the Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympic Games, triumphed in the men's 100 metre butterfly and 100m freestyle at the Shenzhen Universiade Center Swimming Natatorium.

He won the first race in 51.73 seconds, followed by Matthew Temple of Australia in 51.92 and Oleg Kostin of Russia in 53.21. 

In the freestyle, Minakov edged past compatriot Vladimir Morozov to take gold in 48.94, with Morozov finishing in 49.02.

Marcelo Chierighini of Brazil was the bronze medallist in a time of 48.38. 

"Two victories in one night is very challenging," said Minakov.

"I did not compete since last autumn, I just stayed at home and did not go to any competitions. 

"I was just swimming, practising and recovering. 

"So, I was full of energy coming here."

Hosszú was first victorious in the women's 200m butterfly with a time of 2:07.68, topping an all-Hungarian podium which also featured Liliana Szilagyi in 2:08.21 and Boglarka Kapas in 2:09.46.

Her second win came in the women's 200m medley after she finished in 2:10.42, followed by Sydney Pickrem of Canada in 2:10.84 and Ye Shiwen of China in 2:12.35. 

The hosts led the medal table, adding four more gold medals to the five they collected yesterday. 

One of these was achieved by Sun Yang, who is still surrounded by doping controversy. 

Sun triumphed in the men's 400m in 3:44.07.

Danas Rapsys of Lithuania was second in 3:46.62, while Ji Xinjie of China came third in 3:48.11.
