SINGAPORE — Under pressure to bounce back from a shock defeat the previous day, Joseph Schooling faced a familiar teammate – and friendly rival – in his pet event, the men’s 100m butterfly.
The reigning Olympic 100m fly champion clocked 51.84 seconds, just managing to beat Quah’s personal-best 51.84sec showing. Vietnam's Paul Le Nguyen won the bronze in 53.89sec. On Thursday, Schooling had lost his first SEA Games race since 2011 to compatriot Teong Tzen Wei in the 50m butterfly. And he was under pressure from the morning heats, when Quah qualified with a better timing of 52.18sec to Schooling’s 52.99sec.“This means a lot to me. We still have a lot to do before the Olympics, but I’m just going to live in the moment and enjoy this win,” he said.
The two Singapore swimmers then teamed up with Jonathan Tan and Darren Chua to win the 4x100m freestyle gold, also in a Games record of 3:16.82.
