Farah can’t beam with pride until she gets the balance right

Achilles heel: Farah Ann stumbling during her balance beam routine at the 2019 SEA Games

PETALING JAYA: It’s all about a balancing act for national artistic gymnast Farah Ann Abdul Hadi as she prepares to be an all-rounder ahead of the Tokyo Olympic Games. Farah knows she is good in all apparatus except for the balance beam and she is learning new skills to be better at it.

The 26-year-old has never won a gold medal in balance beam in the SEA Games. Her best was at the 2015 edition of the Games in Singapore when she took a bronze medal.
