Vietnamese gymnastics team hunts for Asiad gold medals
Source: VietNamNet Bridge/VNA/Nhandan
With her continued success in 2014, gymnastics
queen Phan Thi Ha Thanh has proved herself to be one of Vietnam’s major
hopes in the hunt for gold medals at the 17th Asian Games (Asiad).
 |
| Gymnast athlete Phan Thi Ha Thanh |
Ha Thanh and her teammates suffered strong disappointment last year
as gymnastics was unfortunately excluded from the 27th Southeast Asian
(SEA) Games’ competition programme. However, Thanh and other members of
the national gymnastics team were compensated with a lot of experience,
which they have accumulated through many other important international
tournaments.
Good news has come thick and fast to Vietnamese
sports since the beginning of 2014, as gymnastics athletes struggled to
bring home commanding success on the global arena. The most outstanding
deed of the gymnastics team was their collection of two gold, one silver
and one bronze won at the Grand Prix Osijek FIG World Challenge Cup
2014, with top female gymnast Phan Thi Ha Thanh as the only gold
medalist.
Maintaining constant practice and training regimens has
brought Thanh to continuous shining performances. Ha Thanh began an
amazing 2014 with a gold medal in the vault and a fifth-place finish on
balance beam at the Korea World Top 2014 competition in Incheon. Also in
April, she rocked the gymnastics world, competing in style to snatch
two gold medals on vault and balance beam at the 2014 Grand Prix Osijek.
The supreme finish at those world-level arenas is a convincing evidence
of Ha Thanh’s level, making her one of the country’s brightest hopes
for gold at the 17th Asiad.
According to Thanh’s direct trainer,
Nguyen Thi Thanh Thuy, despite such positive signals, Thanh and her
teammates will have to apply an extremely vast pressure at the coming
Games, especially in the women’s vault event, which is Thanh’s strength.
This discipline demands high accuracy in technique and absolute
patience in spirit, thus requiring extremely thorough preparation and
stable mind.
Ha Thanh has been undergoing a special programme with increasing levels of difficulty in her training exercises.
Phan
Thi Ha Thanh, however, is not the only hope of the national gymnastics
team. There are still many other promising names that deserve to be
entrusted, including Pham Phuoc Hung and Nguyen Ha Thanh.
Nguyen
Ha Thanh became widely known among gymnastics lovers as he vaulted to
gold at the 2013 Grand Prix Osijek in Croatia, while Pham Phuoc Hung
made his name with a supreme finish on the parallel bars at the 2013 FIG
Artistic Gymnastics World Challenge Cup in Ljubljana, Slovenia and
another silver medal in the same category at the 2014 Grand Prix Osijek.
Given these outstanding achievements, the two athletes are definitely
able to create surprises in Incheon in the coming time.
The
national gymnastics team are scheduled to compete in the 2014
Commonwealth Games in Scotland from July 23 to August 3, which functions
as a perfect warm-up for Vietnamese athletes ahead of the 17th Asiad.
Following the Incheon campaign, the team will continue training for
another important tournament – the 45th World Artistic Gymnastics
Championships in Nanning, China, which takes place in October.
Vietnam
will send 64 athletes to the upcoming 17th Asian Games (ASIAD) to be
held in Incheon, the Republic of Korea (RoK), from September 19 to
October 4.
The country will compete in 20 out of the 36 events. At
the 16th ASIAD in China, the nation gained one gold, 17 silvers and 15
bronzes.

Liew Darren Ready To Lead Country's Medal Charge In Glasgow

KUALA LUMPUR, -- Shuttler Liew Darren who has been
given the task to lead the country's mission in the badminton
competition of the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games in the absence of
world number one Datuk Lee Chong Wei is ready to accept the challenge.
Liew Darren who captained the Thomas Cup team that reached the final will step into the shoes of Chong Wei who had to withdraw due to an aggravated thigh injury, during training.
"I do not regard the task as a burden but as an opportunity to play to my full potential and hopefully reach the final. It will not add any unnecessary pressure on me," he told reporters when met at the flag handing ceremony for the Malaysian contingent for the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, here today.
Chong Wei, the defending champion and two-time Olympics silver medallist aggravated a thigh injury during training and receives treatment at the National Sports Institute (NSI).
Liew Darren who was criticized for failing to deliver the crucial winning point during the Thomas Cup final against Japan, hopes to meet compatriot Chong Wei Feng in the final to ensure Malaysia are assured of the gold medal.
Malaysia eventually lost 2-3 to Japan in the Thomas Cup final held in New Delhi, India.
Malaysia however, has a proud record since the inception of the Games in 1966, winning eight singles titles.
Malaysia won the inaugural singles title via Tan Aik Huang (Kingston, 1966); Punch Gunalan (Christchurch, 1974); Rashid Sidek (Auckland, 1990 and Victoria, 1994); Wong Choong Hann (Kuala Lumpur, 1998); Mohd Hafiz Hashim (Manchester, 2002) and Chong Wei (Melbourne, 2006 and New Delhi, 2010).

Chong Wei's Absence Won't Dampen Spirit Of Malaysian Contingent To Glasgow - CDM
Source: Bernama
KUALA LUMPUR, July 9 -- The absence of world number one shuttler Datuk Lee Chong Wei at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland will not weaken the Malaysian contingent said Chef-De-Mission Datuk Ong Poh Eng.
Ong said he was confident that the Malaysian contingent would be able to put up a commendable performance even without Chong Wei who has been a regular contributor of gold medals in the Commonwealth Games.
"We will announce our gold-medal target for the Commonwealth Games during the flag handing ceremony tomorrow...we will do our best but may not match the medal haul at the New Delhi Commonwealth Games in 2010.
"It is not that we are not good but we have to be realistic in setting targets," he said after receiving sponsorship from Bata at Wisma Majlis Olimpik Malaysia (OCM), here today.
Bata who have been the official shoe sponsor to OCM for 20 years, handed over exclusively designed Power shoes for athletes who will compete in the Commonwealth and Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea.
In 2010, Malaysia won 12 gold medals in New Delhi.
