Asian Games 2026: Team Singapore Hits 11-Medal Mark in Aichi-Nagoya Campaign

Team Singapore's campaign at the 20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya has delivered a series of electrifying podium finishes, accumulating 11 medals-comprising 2 golds, 6 silvers, and 3 bronzes-as the contingent pushes toward surpassing its 16-medal haul from 2023. Spanning 27 disciplines, Singapore's 304-strong squad, featuring 15 Olympians, has made its presence felt across the pool, track, combat arenas, and piste.

The tone was set early on September 20 when distance swimmer Gan Ching Hwee captured silver in the women's 1500m freestyle. Hours later, martial artist Law Zeanne Zhi Ning opened the team's bronze tally with an elegant routine in the women's taijiquan and taijijian combined event. Momentum shifted into top gear on September 21, as Teo Hui Hoon delivered Singapore's first gold medal of the Games with an emphatic victory in the women's 60kg mixed martial arts division.

Singapore's fencers and swimmers kept the scoreboard ticking with relentless consistency. Gan bagged her second silver on September 22 in the 400m freestyle, while Olympian Kiria Tikanah Abdul Rahman fought her way to an individual silver in the women's épée. The following day, Maxine Wong added a foil individual bronze, underscoring the Republic's growing depth in fencing.
