BIRMINGHAM, Aug 9 — Young rhythmic gymnast Ng Joe Ee and weightlifter Mohd Aznil Bidin emerged as the most successful national athletes as the curtains come down on the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games yesterday.
Mohamad Aniq Kasdan contributed the other weightlifting gold medal in the men’s 55kg category while Muhammad Erry Hidayat chipped in with a silver in the 73kg category. The OCM boss also singled out the national shuttlers and paddlers for praise, with the badminton players raking in two golds, one silver and two bronzes while the table tennis team stunned defending champions India in the women’s team quarter-finals en route to winning the team silver medal.
“Amir Daniel, who is 17, proved that his selection for the Commonwealth Games was not to just fill the quota when he managed to win a bronze in the 73kg event,” he said. “Tze Yong was not set any targets. He showed that he is able to shoulder the responsibility placed on him, including defeating Kidambi Srikanth 21-19, 8-21, 21-16 in the mixed team final to guide the badminton team to the targeted gold medal,” he added.
