It was a team effort that delivered the milestone goal for Team Singapore, as the women’s swimming 4x100m freestyle relay quartet of Quah Ting Wen, Nur Marina Chan, Quah Jing Wen and Amanda Lim touched the wall first at the Morodok Techo National Aquatics Centre.
Ting Wen said that she realised the quartet could create history after her younger brother Zheng Wen won Singapore’s 999th gold. Chan, 25, whose father Bernard and aunt Patricia are well-known names in swimming, added: “A relay gold is always a bit more special because it’s a collective effort that showcases all of our strengths, and this one even more so because it’s our country’s 1,000th.”
Singapore is the sixth and smallest nation from the 11 participating countries to join the 1,000-gold club, after Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam and the Philippines.
