Singapore, Dec. 8 -- Singapore dominated Thailand to win the men's foil team gold yesterday in a 45-26 victory that had been set in motion the night before.
Kevin Chan, 21, said: "We sat together thinking about the different opponents we had faced in the individual competition. So we prepared very well and did it together.
"We knew we would have someone cover our backs no matter what, so we were very confident."
This teamwork was on display throughout the final, with Darren Tan, Chan, Jet Ng and Joshua Lim jumping, roaring and pumping their fists at almost every point as each took their turn on the piste.
Team events were not contested in Kuala Lumpur 2017, which could explain why the team treasured the experience this time.
