Five Olympics. Two degrees. One career no Malaysian athlete has ever matched.
Leong Mun Yee. Diver. Started as a swimmer, chosen for Malaysia's pioneer diving team at 10. Made her Olympic debut in Sydney at just 15. In 2009 won Malaysia's first ever diving medal at the World Championships alongside Pandelela Rinong. Then kept going. Athens. Beijing. London. Tokyo. Five straight Olympic Games, all while earning a bachelor's and a master's degree.
After her final dive in Tokyo she said simply: no regrets.
Over two decades, she did not just represent Malaysia. She redefined what was possible for it.

Back in uni days, when the class starts at 8am, she'll be there by 7.45am if not 7.30am.
