MOHD Syafiq Puteh only managed to train together with partner Ooi Tze Liang a week before they arrived in Hangzhou for the Asian Games diving competition.

But that one week of training drills proved to be good enough for the recently formed Malaysian pair to snatch the bronze medal in the men’s 3m springboard synchro final at Hangzhou Aquatic Sports Centre last night.
