Top Vietnamese swimmer Nguyen Thi Anh Vien has shined in the US as she won three gold and a silver medals at the Florida Swimming Spring Senior Championship 2014, which took place from February 27 to March 3 in Orlando, Florida.

Vien’s presence at the competition is part of her activities in an intensive training course in the US.

Previously, Vien finished second in the women's 400m medley event at the Orlando Grand Prix in the country on February 14.

High hopes are pinned on the 17-year-old female swimmer that she would achieve even better results at the 17th Asian Games, scheduled for Incheon, the Republic of Korea, in 2014.

At the 27th SEA Games in Myanmar 2013, Vien set a new mark in Vietnam's swimming history by becoming the first-ever Vietnamese to win three gold medals, two silvers and one bronze, in one singles Games in its 54-year history of the country's competing in the Games.

Vien polished her outstanding achievements by breaking two SEA Games records in the women’s 200m backstroke and 400m medley events, with respective time of 2:14.80 and 4:46.16.
