MARSEILLE: On National Day, kitefoiler Maximilian Maeder delivered a birthday gift for Singapore as he put the “little red dot” on the map by clinching a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics.
The 17-year-old’s medal is just Singapore’s sixth at the Olympics. Maximilian’s podium finish in the men’s formula kite at the Olympics on Friday (Aug 9) is no surprise given his track record in recent years. In 2024, he swept every trophy on offer, including retaining his world championship title.
