VietNamNet Bridge – Hoang Quy Phuoc - the swimmer from Da Nang city - has set very impressive achievements at the swimming - diving tournament 2013 that was held in the ancient city of Hue last week.

Hoang Quy Phuoc surely holds an Olympic card 

 

 

In the morning of March 22 alone, Phuoc won four more gold medals (three medals for individual and one for group) and broke one more national record. Phuoc had a total of 13 gold medals and five national records in this tournament.

Specifically, in the men’s 100m mixed content, Phuoc broke the national record made by himself in 2010 (57 seconds 68) with 57 seconds 12.

The second gold medal is for the men’s 100m freestyle category. He hit the finish line with 51 seconds 41. Though this result lags far behind Phuoc’s own record set in 2010 (49 seconds to 50), but it is enough for him to win the gold medal.

The biggest challenge for Phuoc is the men’s 200m butterfly category because long distance is not his forte. However, psychological comfort helped Phuoc win the gold medal for 2 minutes 4 seconds 03.

The last gold medal Phuoc won on March 22 is in the men’s 200m relay. Phuoc and his teammate (Hoang Dinh Long, Nguyen Van Ty, Pham Truong Giang) hit the finish line first with 1 minute 45 seconds.
