Pandalela in London 2012

it was diving that showed a tremendous improvement this recent years...

from nobody could recognize Msian divers except Bryan Nickson Lomas that debuted in Athens if Im not mistaken as the youngest athlete to compete in that Olympic...

now, we have a Bidayuh girl, only 17 but has managed to rock world diving arena...

Pandela Rinong is a name of household in Malaysia despite of the popularity of two Datuks- Lee Chong Wei and Nicol Ann David..

early March, Pandalela won silver in FINA Diving Series in Moscow..what a great start for 2011 after a year of glory on 2010...Im impressed with her...she lost to reigning Olympic champion Chen Ruolin...

China is in totally different league after all..their divers are so splendid that me myself had a real big prob to not amaze with their technique...they are so good on the air, doing summersault, n the entry to the pool is so clean that a little splash of water could be seen...

Okay, we hire their coach Yang Zhuliang and it works beautifully...Pandalela is improving by time..Recently, she and her senior partner Leong Mun Yee won silver (second personal silver after Moscow) in FINA Diving Series in Beijing..this time around, again lost to Chen Ruolin/Wang Hao...

2 silvers in 2 consecutive world championship proved that Pandalela now is a world class diver that only left by Chinese champions...

We dont know how she will be improving for the next 1 year ahead before London 2012 begins...

But what Im sure is Pandalela is a reason why 27 millions eyes from Malaysia will be focusing on the Aquatic arena in London...because there is one girl that might become the FIRST girl in Malaysia to grab a medal in Olympic and the only one athlete except badminton that had achieved that success....

Amin....Im rooting for you girl...
