The event is being held at the OCBC Arena from Aug 24-27.
Singapore's Vera Tan and Zeanne Law clinched golds in the World Taijiquan Championships women's optional taijijian and taijiquan respectively.
She told The Straits Times: “I tried to smile more today! I was actually more nervous today. I’m not sure why, but I didn’t feel I was in my best form during my warm-up. However, I’m glad I managed to shut off the nerves and perform as I usually do in training. To prepare for the event, which runs until Aug 27, she went for an intensive training camp in China in June and July and had regular mock competitions. Despite suffering a hip adductor injury just a few days before the competition, she managed to cope with treatment from a physiotherapist.
