Let’s Salute Our World Champion Female Swimmer

No, I’m not talking about Tao Li, whom almost everyone would by now know struck gold at the Asian Games.

I’m talking about our world champion Theresa Goh, who won the 200m Individual Medley at the International Paralympic Committee World Swimming Championships in Durban, South Africa, with a time of 4 minutes 6.39 seconds.

Let’s give Theresa the props she fully deserves.

Being world champion is never easy…in no matter what sport or event.

She has done us proud indeed.

Well done, Theresa!

Now the hard question to ask is this: If Tao Li received S$250,000 for being the best in Asia, how much did/should Theresa Goh receive for being best in the world?

And if Theresa goes on to win gold at the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games, how much should she receive?

Should she be getting any less than an Asian Games gold medalist?
