SINGAPORE: Silat exponent Sheik Farhan and table tennis player Feng Tianwei were crowned Singapore’s Sportsman and Sportswoman of the Year respectively on Wednesday (Aug 23).

The duo were among the winners of the Singapore Sports Awards 2023, held at the Orchard Hotel on Wednesday evening, to celebrate and recognise the achievements of Singapore’s athletes.

Feng, Singapore’s most bemedalled Olympian, bagged three gold medals at the Commonwealth Games last year, bringing her Games' medal tally to 13 and surpassing former table tennis player Li Jiawei’s record haul of 10.

Feng is pursuing a master’s degree in sport industry management in Beijing’s Peking University and working part-time at Sport Singapore’s sport development group.
