Selangor has surpassed its goal of 80 gold medals at the 2026 Malaysia Games (Sukma), thanks in part to the impressive performance of swimmer Eliza Ai Shen Tan. Tan achieved a remarkable debut with seven gold medals, breaking the Games record in the women's 50-metre freestyle and setting a new national record in the 100m freestyle.
