Keep calm and swim on


Big mission: Khiew Hoe Yean will compete in the men’s 400m freestyle heats tomorrow. Inset: Alex Lim Keng Liat.

PETALING JAYA: Alex Lim Keng Liat knows what it is like to be a top Olympics swimmer. He remains the only Malaysian to have raced in an Olympic swimming semi-final – in Athens 2004.

Despite his achievement, the top backstroker Keng Liat was disappointed in himself for not making it into the final then – it was the hallmark of a true champion.
