KANAGR: Third time’s the charm for Slyvester Gaing as he rose to the occasion to bag his first Sukma medals – both golds – in the men’s platform and 3m springboard synchro.

Slyvester teamed up with Carlyse Chan Wee Chiek to score 334.80 in the springboard synchro event, well ahead of nearest rivals Ikhlas-Ahmad Sharol Lail and Ng Zheng Hao of Selangor (287.82) to deliver the first diving gold for Sarawak.
