Hong Kong's Siobhan Haughey secured her third medal at the Asian Games on Tuesday, claiming victory in the women's 100 metres freestyle at the Tokyo Aquatics Centre. The 25-year-old swimmer clocked 52.45 seconds, setting both the Asian and Games records in the process. Competing alongside her teammates Yu Yiting and Cheng Yujie, Haughey's strong performance secured the podium for the national team.
During a post-race interview, Haughey expressed her delight at having her parents present in person to support her, a contrast to the Tokyo Olympics when she had to rely on television broadcasts. The win marked a significant milestone for Haughey, who now boasts three medals from the Asian Games. She will return to competition on Thursday, targeting the women's 50 metres freestyle event.
