Wushu star Cheong Min keeps calm under Asian Games pressure

KUALA LUMPUR: Wushu star Tan Cheong Min remains composed under the pressure of being Malaysia's gold-medal contender at the Asian Games, according to her own account. The three-time world champion acknowledges that the weight of expectation is significant, but she opts to view it as a positive challenge. She recognizes the responsibility that comes with being the team's medal hope and the trust placed in her by the squad.

Despite feeling the pressure, Cheong Min sees it as a source of motivation for her performance. The reigning World Games champion, who secured silver at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, is now concentrating on her training and preparation rather than fixating on the outcome. She emphasizes that her primary concern is giving her best effort in every performance and relishing each moment on stage.

Cheong Min stresses that her mindset is to ensure she has given her all, rather than being preoccupied with the final result.
