Koh, 31, said on Tuesday: “We were very excited when we found out that we would be heading to the world championships. The girls were also filled with pride and felt all the hard work and dedication they had put in for their training was worthwhile.” Singapore Aquatics vice-president Dominic Soh insisted that the women’s team, who have won a gold and three silvers at the SEA Games, are not going to the Middle East just to make up the numbers.
