FATIN Zakirah Jalany Zain Jalany of Federal Territories redeemed
herself by winning the rhythmic gymnastics individual all around gold
medal in the Malaysian Games (Sukma) at the Sukpa Gymnastics Stadium.
The Bukit Jalil Sports School (BJSS) student, who finished behind team-mate Tai Qing Tong in the team event on the first day of the competition, grabbed the gold medal with a total of 97.299 points yesterday.
Qing Tong (95.398) settled for the silver and Selangor’s Shak Yuki (91.766) the bronze.

Fatin,
who won the team and individual all around gold medals in the 4th Asean
School Games in Surabaya earlier this month, is glad that she managed
to make amends for her poor performance on the first day.
“I was a bit disappointed to finish second behind Qing Tong, so I really wanted to improve my performance for the gold medal,” said the 15-year-old Fatin.
“I performed my routines better, especially in my pet event – the clubs. But it’s still not perfect and I hope to do better in the individual apparatus round.
“I guess it will be tougher. Qing Tong will definitely be my biggest threat.”
