No splash in the pool but Jayden not the least jaded


IT was not the best of start for young Malaysian swimmer Jayden Tan (pic) but he is still hopeful of notching something memorable from his Asian Games debut.

The 18-year-old posted 2:06.18s to place 15th overall in the men’s 200m individual medley heats as the swimming competition got underway at the Hangzhou Aquatics Sports Arena yesterday.
