NEW RHYTHM TO ROCK ON
The Straits Times
|February 21, 2026
Q Was there a specific moment in 2025 when you realised you had reached a new level?
-
A I think it was at the start of 2025, when we had to register for the competitions.Usually I wouldn’t say out loud ‘I want to win this (a certain competition)’, it’s just things I would say inside, but I would not let my coach know.
When the schedule was out, I said I wanted to win this Rock ‘n’ Roll Open, then when I finally got to the Rock ‘n’ Roll Open and actually won it... it felt unbelievable.
At first it was a joke, but I could envision myself (winning it). Because every winner has to pose with the trophy, so I was thinking it would be damn funny if I win it and I strike a rock pose, and I could see it play out in my head.
I had to make it happen, so the photo could happen, and I know this photo will be in their archives when anyone searches for this competition.
Q Was there anything you had to let go of - a belief, a habit or a way of thinking - to get to the level you were at in 2025?
