SINGAPORE: Once again, she has created a big splash! Disabled swimmer Theresa Goh has rewritten two of her world records, in the 50m and 200m breaststroke events.

She clinched her latest in Europe where she competed at the German and British International Disability Swimming Championships.

In December last year, Theresa returned triumphant from the World Championship in Durban, South Africa, where she won a gold.

And three months earlier in the US (Aug 2006), she had set the world record for the 200 metre breaststroke event, in a time of 4:30:67.

And her latest feat - in Britain, Theresa, who suffers from spina bifida, shaved 13 seconds off her world mark, to finish with a time of 4:17:38.

Earlier this year (March 2007), Theresa had also set the world record for the 50 metre breaststroke in Denmark.

And at the latest German meet, she improved her time of 53.60 to stop the clock at 52.94 for the new record.

All this augurs well for the 20-year-old, as she prepares for the Beijing Paralympics next year. - CNA/yy
