KUCHING, Despite battling a tendon injury on her right shoulder, Sayyeda Khadeeja Mohammad Anis Fadhli showed remarkable grit to clinch two gold medals for Pahang in the 25-meter air pistol women's individual and team events at the 2024 Malaysia Games (SUKMA) today.

Leticia Jia Yi from Sarawak claimed silver with 15 points, while her teammate Intan Nurirdina Faqihah Mohd Azhar got the bronze with 14. 'I've had this nagging injury since March, a torn tendon… although I'm in recovery, training has to continue. As athletes, injuries can strike at any time. 'My hand shook slightly on the fourth and fifth shots, so in situations like this, mental preparation is key. The support from my team helped me push through the pain and focus solely on winning,' she told Bernama. Hailing from Kuala Lipis, Sayyeda Khadeeja also led her teammates, Wa n Nur Afiqah Wan Mohd Haneef and Intan Nurirdina Faqihah Mohd Azhar, to another gold with a total score of 1,665 points in the team event.
