With consistent performance and unwavering competitive spirit, Thu Vinh won the individual gold medal, simultaneously breaking the SEA Games record for the second time, marking a memorable milestone in her career.
In the women's 10m pistol individual final on the afternoon of December 14th, Trinh Thu Vinh demonstrated intense concentration and excellent mental control. She consistently led after each round of shooting, overcoming fierce competition from strong regional rivals. Ultimately, Thu Vinh won the gold medal convincingly, while Nguyen Thuy Trang brilliantly secured the silver medal, thus affirming the consistent strength of the Vietnamese women's shooting team.
Earlier that morning, Trinh Thu Vinh, along with Nguyen Thuy Trang and Trinh Thi Hoa Hong, competed in the women's 10m air pistol team event. With excellent teamwork and consistent performance from all three shooters, the Vietnamese team not only won the gold medal but also broke the SEA Games record, achieving a convincing victory over their regional rivals.
Notably, this is the second time at this SEA Games that Trinh Thu Vinh has broken a record, demonstrating remarkable progress in her skills and competitive spirit in crucial moments. These impressive numbers not only reflect Thu Vinh's individual ability but also the result of the serious and scientific training process of the Vietnamese shooting team.
Trinh Thu Vinh is not an unfamiliar name to sports fans. Before the SEA Games, she made a big splash by reaching the top 4 at the 2024 Paris Olympics, a rare achievement for Vietnamese shooting on the world stage. This result made Thu Vinh a great hope for Vietnamese shooting in international competitions.
What makes Trinh Thu Vinh's achievement even more remarkable is that she has only been involved in shooting for 8 years. From a young athlete, gradually familiarizing herself with the shooting range, Thu Vinh has continuously strived to perfect her technique, improve her physical fitness, and develop her competitive spirit. This short but challenging journey has propelled her to the ranks of the best shooters in Southeast Asia.
After winning the individual gold medal at the 33rd SEA Games, Trinh Thu Vinh revealed the story behind the gun that brought her two gold medals: "I've considered this gun my companion. I've known it for seven years. And I often tell it, 'Friend, you've been with me for a long time, so you should listen to me.'"
