The Olympic selection controversy involving national swimmers Quah Ting Wen and Gan Ching Hwee has dominated headlines and social media chatter, with many expressing sympathy for Quah after she was dropped from the women’s 4x100m medley relay team...
National swimmer Gan Ching Hwee on the sidelines of Singapore Aquatics’ sponsorship announcement with Trans Eurokars-Mazda for the World Aquatics Swimming World Cup on July 10.
This meant that the world body’s initial offer of an extra relay-only slot on July 3 was no longer valid, leaving only two places available to those who did not meet the cut. With Letitia and Gan guaranteed spots in the team, SAQ said on July 8 that its selection committee considered “all permutations for the best outcome” before deciding on the line-up.
He added: “The timeline in our selection policy states that there will be OCT invites that could be sent out on July 5. Everyone is aware of this possibility.”
