Displaying his trademark gesture – pointing two fingers to the heavens – SMU-bound swimmer Danny Yeo clocked 1 min 50.71 sec to retain his title as the region's fastest 200m freestylist. The gesture demonstrates his personal dedication to his late father – Mr Felix – who died of cancer when the swimmer was just 16. “I would tell him (my father) that I did my best. I made it. I made it this far after he passed away,” said Yeo in a quiet moment after the race.
