National swimmer Teong Tzen Wei believes he can expand his repertoire to include the 100m free and 50m butterfly at August’s Asian Games. On Monday, he was announced as one of two recipients of the SMU Yip Pin Xiu Scholarship alongside wakeboarder and multiple SEA Games gold medallist Sasha Christian. The bond-free bursary is named after Paralympic champion and SMU social sciences alumna Yip Pin Xiu. Tzen Wei and Sasha will enrol in August to study business management and social sciences respectively. Said Sasha, who is in Chile for a training stint before Sunday’s IWWF World Wakeboard Championships in Argentina: “I am very excited to be joining SMU this August and look forward to growing holistically as a scholar-athlete, fully immersing myself in a dynamic environment where the world is constantly evolving.”
