Nguyen Thi Oanh's poker (4) in athletics, the historic gold medal in golf, and the absolute victory in aerobics contributed to the success of the Vietnamese delegation at SEA Games 32.
 |
| Even before the 32nd SEA Games officially opened, the Vietnamese sports delegation had already won its first gold medal in the game of "Cờ Ốc" (a type of chess). Two players, Tôn Nữ Hồng Ân and Phạm Thanh Phương Thảo, won the team event in 60 minutes. |
 |
| In the early days of the 32nd SEA Games, swimming brought home many emotionally charged medals. "Frog Prince" Pham Thanh Bao continued to be a standout swimmer, successfully defending his gold medal in the 100m breaststroke and even breaking the SEA Games record. He also won the 200m breaststroke for the first time and set a new Games record. |
 |
| After winning the individual events, Tran Hung Nguyen and Huy Hoang, along with Hoang Quy Phuoc and Nguyen Huu Kim Son, successfully defended their gold medals in the men's 4x200m freestyle relay. The "hot boys" had a spectacular and dramatic sprint finish. |
 |
| The Vietnamese women's 3x3 basketball team won their first-ever SEA Games championship after defeating the Philippines in the final. The outstanding performance of the Vietnamese-American sisters Truong Thao My and Truong Thao Vy, along with their teammates Tieu Duy and Huynh Ngoan, brought home a historic gold medal for Vietnamese basketball. |
 |
| Nguyen Thi Oanh was Vietnam's most outstanding athlete, winning four individual gold medals at the 32nd SEA Games. She successfully defended her titles in the 5,000m, 1,500m, and 3,000m steeplechase, and then triumphed in the 10,000m. Remarkably, the "superwoman" from Bac Giang province also impressed by winning two gold medals within 30 minutes. |
 |
| Besides Nguyen Thi Oanh, other Vietnamese female track and field athletes also had a successful competition. Runner Nguyen Thi Huyen contributed to two gold medals in the women's 4x400m relay and the mixed 4x400m relay. She also successfully defended her 400m hurdles title. Thu Ha won the gold medal in the 800m race, and Huynh Thi My Tien finished first in the 100m hurdles. Nguyen Thi Thanh Phuc and Linh Na both successfully defended their titles in the 20km walk and heptathlon. |
 |
| Fifteen-year-old athlete Le Khanh Hung brought home a historic gold medal for Vietnamese golf at the 32nd SEA Games. Afterwards, Hung and his teammates won an additional silver medal in the team event. |
 |
| Aerobics was the dominant sport at this year's SEA Games. Vietnamese athletes swept all five gold medals in the men's, women's, three-person team, mixed doubles, and five-person team events. |
 |
| Table tennis also secured a precious gold medal after a 26-year wait. The duo of Tran Mai Ngoc and Dinh Anh Hoang achieved a convincing victory against their Singaporean opponents in the mixed doubles final. 19-year-old Mai Ngoc impressed with her passionate playing style and strong mentality in the match against a highly-rated opponent. |
 |
| Defeating Myanmar 2-0 in the final, the Vietnamese women's football team won the SEA Games for the fourth consecutive time. This is a record for the Games. Coach Mai Duc Chung and his team arrived in Cambodia facing many difficulties, such as injuries to key players and a large number of young players in the squad, but the entire team still achieved the best result. |
 |
| On the final day of competition at the 32nd SEA Games, weightlifter Nguyen Quoc Toan opened the gold medal tally with a performance that broke three Games records. He set new records in snatch, clean and jerk, and total lift. The athlete from Bac Lieu and his coach, Luong Thi Bich Tuyen, celebrated this sweet achievement after more than a year of training, moving from the 81 kg to 89 kg weight class. |
The Vietnamese sports delegation topped the overall medal table at the SEA Games for the third time, and for the first time achieved this position at a Games not held in their home country.
With 136 gold medals, 105 silver medals, and 114 bronze medals, Vietnam has 28 more gold medals than second-placed Thailand.
The team's "gold mines" continue to be diving, athletics, swimming, gymnastics, wrestling, and martial arts.
At 7 PM tonight (May 17th), the closing ceremony of the 32nd SEA Games will take place at the Morodok Techo National Stadium in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
