History was made on 13 Aug, Singapore Time 9.12am!
Joseph Schooling, won the Gold medal in 100m Mens' Butterfly 50m race. It's not just winning, it's also setting the Olympics Record of 50:39s. It's not just breaking the OR but also winning his idol, super legend Michael Phelps. And Joseph Schooling won with 3 others at the Silver position. How cool is that, with Singapore flag on top of 3 other flags. And it was surreal when we heard the National Anthem "Majulah Singapura" played at the Victory Ceremony. All Singaporeans feel really proud, you can tell from all the Facebook feeds, they kept coming and one could easily feel the great pride and joy.
Mr Schooling received numerous congrats and also a warm welcome when he was back Singapore just this morning at 5plus am. It was so warm to see the welcome he received once the plane landed. From the water canon to so many "live" Facebook postings, he is so loved. Haha!
