The evening of December 12th marked a special milestone in Quang Thuan's career as he successfully won his first SEA Games gold medal in the men's 400m individual medley in Thailand. |
 |
Thuấn's biggest rival in this event is the reigning champion, his senior Trần Hưng Nguyên. At the 32nd SEA Games, Hưng Nguyên won the gold medal while Quang Thuấn won the silver. |
 |
This time, the order has shifted. The 400m individual medley consists of four smaller events: butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle. Quang Thuấn didn't start very well in the first two events before surging ahead in the last two. |
 |
He finished with a time of 4 minutes 19 seconds 98, while Hung Nguyen's time was 4 minutes 25 seconds 45. |
    |
In contrast to the celebratory splashing and shouting of emotions, Anh Vien's younger brother celebrated more calmly. He smiled warmly, sharing his joy with fans and the media. |
 |
Quang Thuấn's victory was a disappointment for Hưng Nguyên. Nguyên had dominated this event in the last three SEA Games. |
    |
On the medal podium, Quang Thuấn still maintained his gentle, even somewhat shy, smile. |
 |
A few minutes after Quang Thuan's victory, Vietnamese swimming won another gold medal thanks to Nguyen Huy Hoang in the men's 1,500m freestyle with a time of 15 minutes 19 seconds 58. |
 |
For five consecutive SEA Games, Huy Hoang has won this event, a particularly impressive record. |
 |
Vietnamese male swimmers also brought home a bronze medal in the 4x100m medley relay. At this point in the Games, the swimming team has won 5 gold medals, all brought home by male swimmers. |
