Young swimmer determined to excel


Sebastian looks to Japanese swimmer Daiya Seto and Hungarian Laszlo Czech for inspiration.

WHERE there is a will, there is always a way. National swimmer Sebastian Soon feels his lack of height is not an obstacle to success, and he has a “short” swimmer to look up to.

The 170cm tall swimmer has shown his mettle by smashing the national record while winning the 400m individual medley at the 2019 Malaysia Open Swimming Championship.
