Singapore - Swimmer Theresa Goh made it four golds in four events at the Asean Para Games when she won the 200m freestyle S5 on Sunday evening.

The 28-year-old torched the field in a Games record time of 3min 38.04sec, ahead of Vietnam pair Nguyen Thi Den (4:46.35) and Danh Thi My Thanh (4:47.64) at the OCBC Aquatic Centre.

Said Goh: "I never expected to go under the Games record time so it was a bonus. Like I've said from the first day, it was all about timings for me and I'm really pleased."

Singapore's other medal from Day 3 of the swimming meet came from Toh Wei Soong, who finished second in the men's 400m freestyle S8.
