EVENTS TO WATCH

Swimming

After Quah Jing Wen and her brother Zheng Wen lost their grips on Dec 10 in the women’s 200m butterfly and men’s 100m backstroke – events they had previously dominated for four and five editions respectively, the third of the siblings, Ting Wen, will be hoping to retain her crown in the 100m freestyle, in which she is the favourite. A win would take her tally in the event to six golds in a row at the Games.

Baseball

Singapore will be looking for a first baseball medal when they face Indonesia in the bronze play-off at the Queen Sirikit 60th Anniversary Baseball Stadium in Pathum Thani. Meanwhile, the hosts and favourites the Philippines are set to duke it out for the gold, which will be the fourth time that the two sides have met in the final.

Fun Fact of the Day

Malaysia’s karate queen Chandran Shahmalarani (women’s kumite Under-50kg) will be looking to secure a hat-trick of golds at the SEA Games, having already won in the 2021 and 2023 editions. She is riding a wave of confidence, having won a silver at the world championships in November.
