Double Joy For Quah Ting Wen In 25th SEA Games
It was double joy for Quah Ting Wen as she smashed two SEA Games marks, en route to claiming golds in the 100m freestyle and 4x200m free relay.
Her time of 56.03s in the 100m freestyle also erased a 10-year-old record of 56.05s, established by Joscelin Yeo at the Brunei SEA Games.
Thailand’s J. Natthanan took the silver in 56.33 while another Singaporean Lim Xiang Qi (56.60) settled for the bronze.
Ting Wen said: "I was rather nervous in the final. There were many other good swimmers. But I was confident of setting a new record if I win the gold."
I thought the retirement of Joscelyn Yeo will have resulted in barren years for our national swimming team. Fortunately, the arrival of Quah Ting Wen has given us hopes of dominating the pool again.
Will she win the eight gold medals as expected? Stay tuned for updates.
