JAKARTA — Swimming athlete Flairene Candrea Wonomiharjo managed to make a surprise at the 2021 SEA Games. She successfully won a gold medal in the swimming sport.
Flairene was unseeded in the women's 100 meters backstroke when she competed at My Dinh Water Sports Palace, on Tuesday, 17 May. Despite the status of a dark horse, he succeeded in proving himself occupying the highest podium.
The 17-year-old athlete finished ahead with a time of 1 minute 3.36 seconds. She was followed by two Filipino representatives, Chloe Kennedy Anne Isleta Doromal (1 minute 3.860 seconds) who won silver and Jessica Joy Gerianne Taguba (1 minute 3.780 seconds) who got bronze.
"This medal is for Indonesia, my beloved country. I am very happy to be able to win gold. Because, I also just entered the 2022 national training. Last year I focused on beautiful swimming," said Flairene after the race.
Indonesia actually pinned its hopes of a gold medal on Masniari Wolf in the number that Flairene won.
Masniari, who is an Indonesian-German swimmer, previously won the 50-meter backstroke. However, when competing in the 100 meters, Masniari had to settle for fourth place with a time of 1 minute 4.510 seconds.
Indonesia also received an additional bronze from I Gede Siman Sudartawa. This Bali-born youth finished third in the 50m backstroke with a time of 25.880 seconds.
Singapore's Zheng Wen Quah won gold in 25.830 seconds. Meanwhile, host Nguyen Paul Le won silver after opening 25.860 seconds.
The gold presented by Flairene is the second gold in swimming. This gold is also the 27th gold medal for the Indonesian contingent in the biennial event.
