Star winner “Flying Fish” Siobhan Haughey on Monday won a second gold medal for the Hong Kong in the women’s 200-meter freestyle event at the 20th Asian Games being held in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan.
Haughey – Asia’s record holder for the event -- led throughout the race, finishing in one minute, 54.96 seconds, more than a body length ahead of the runner-up swimmer Li Jiaping from China.
Haughey said although her time wasn’t as fast as she had hoped, she had given it her all and was satisfied with the result.
