Wushu medal eludes Shin Yii by a whisker


Malaysia's Ng Shin Yii lost out on the bronze medal in wushu by a mere 0.05 points at the Incheon Asian Games on Monday. - KAMARUL ARIFFIN/ The STAR

INCHEON: It was just a minor mistake but it cost wushu exponent Ng Shin Yii and Malaysia dearly in the women’s taijijian and taijiquan all-round as she finished out of the medals at the Ganghwa Dolmens Gymnasium.

In the taijijian routine on Monday morning, 0.2 points were deducted from her score after she nudged her left leg a little bit too much on her landing.
