Rachel raises the bar after knee injury heals


PETALING JAYA: National gymnast Rachel Yeoh Li Wen is a shy girl, but all that timidity disappears when she is on the apparatus or floor. Then, she lights up the gymnasium with her smile and charm.

The smile hides the steel behind the lass. The Penangite has endured painful knee injuries in both legs and has even considered quitting in 2017 but she is finally making her presence felt in the national team.
