In sync: Leong Mun Yee (right) and Pandelela Rinong competing in the women

PETALING JAYA: Veteran diver Leong Mun Yee will have to wait until next year to learn if she can become the first Malaysian to make a fifth Olympic appearance.

The Amateur Swimming Union of Malaysia (Asum) are keeping their options open as they want the “best and strongest” pair to carry the nation’s hopes in the women’s 10m platform synchro event at the Tokyo Olympics in August next year.
