Question 3

Read the newspaper report about Malaysia’s Young athlete.

Eddy the Rising Star

KUALA LUMPUR: Eddy Chew went to last year’s Myanmar SEA Games as an
unknown. He returned home as one of Malaysia’s heroes.

The 18-year-old shocked the field in the men’s 50m free pistol event to end Malaysia’s
30-year-old gold drought. Eddy also bagged a silver (men’s 10m air pistol) and a bronze
(men’s 50m free pistol team) with Jonathan Wong Guanjie and Abdul Hadi Abdul Malek
to become the most successful Malaysian shooter at the Games. He was immediately
hailed as the next rising star.

“My aim is to qualify for the 2016 Rio Olympics. It’s going to be a tough road to Rio, but
I’ll give it my best shot,” said 19-year-old Eddy.

Eddy’s involvement in shooting began at the age of nine when his father Chew Lee Seng,
an avid hunter, took him and his siblings to the Batu Pahat Shooting Association. Eddy as
only nine then and he confessed he didn’t really warm to the idea of picking up the sport
but she changed his mind after a week. Soon, he was hooked.

Eddy was then put under the guidance of Russian coach Nikolaev Viktor. Eddy said he
was grateful to Viktor for moulding him into a good marksman.

“Viktor taught me many things. He said everyone can shoot a 10 but how many can keep
shooting 10s consistently. It is all about focus and being consistent,” said Eddy.

Eddy also paid tribute to Johor shooter Le Yeu Sing.

“When I was growing up, I also looked up to Yeu Sing. I still do until today. These two
men shaped and inspired me to be the shooter I am today,” he added.

Eddy failed to win any medals in the Johor Under-15 Championship in 2006 but his
talent shone through and it earned him the Young Shooter Award. He continued to
represent Johor until 2012.

In 2013, he received a big break when he was called to join the national development
team. It proved to be a year to remember for him as he went on to make a name at the
Myanmar SEA Games and duly promoted to the national senior team this year.
