The morning after sprinting her way to a 100m silver, Pereira was back at it again at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Stadium. Her time of 23.14s meant that she was the fastest qualifier from the three heats.
"Considering the really little rest I had because of the medal ceremony plus I had to go for anti-doping , I got back pretty late," she told reporters on Sunday.Earlier in the morning, Singapore men's 110m hurdles national record holder Ang Chen Xiang also booked his place in the final after clocking a time of 13.90s in the heats. Ang finished seventh overall and will also compete on Monday.
"Mentally I knew I just had to reset no matter what the result was yesterday and focus on today. I'm glad the conditions were great... The wind was good... weather was really nice also, really cooling, not too hot. It was very nice," said the Singaporean.
