Filipino pride Micaela Jasmine Mojdeh unleashed her 'water beast' mode in the 9th World Aquatics Junior Championships after breaking the Philippine national junior record in the women's 200m butterfly on Tuesday in Netanya, Israel.

Mojdeh, a semifinalist in the 2022 World Junior Championships in Peru, once again showcased her grit as she checked in at two minutes and 15.86 seconds.She erased the old national junior record of 2:17.09 in the women's 16-18 category.'I am so happy breaking a PH record and lowering my time. I have been manifesting to get this time for so long. I got inspired by my Bellevue teammate, Clare Watson who swims for Canada,' Mojdeh narrated.

'I also put into mind what coach Sherwyn told me when I was training in Clark upon my arrival from America. He told me to extend my stroke when I feel like I am dying so that my head won't go up that will create a drag and slow me down,' said Mojdeh.'So I did and it worked. Thanks to everyone who cheered for me and prayed for me. To all my coaches. To my parents. Para sa Pilipinas,' Mojdeh ended.
