Enid Sung can go to the World Championships with the
national team later in the year if she finishes in top two at the national
level. She can qualify to Rio Olympics for a top finish there. The 20-year-old
said she had a shoulder problem last year and she has just recovered from it
and if she performs well in the event then she can be there but it depends upon
what happens on the day. Sung finished first in the ball, ribbon and clubs
events and third in the hoop event at the recent State Championships.
She won the Rhythmic Gymnastics Senior All Around
State Champion award due to hard work and the Australian Gymnastics Championships
from May 18 to May 30 in Melbourne will see her as top performer. Meriden
Rhythmic Gymnastics Center is her training place and she manages between tough
training and full time study. She said she is a full time student of Sydney
University and so she wants to qualify for the World University Games also.
The rhytmatic gymnast further said although
qualification of Olympics and Commonwealth games is big achievement but the
World Uni Games qualification will also be a big job. She further explained she
trains for four hours in 5 or 6 days per week and she do her own training a
couple of days per week. Sung has been performing in gymnastics for about 10
years and has already represented Australia successfully at the Youth Olympic
Festival in 2009 and was contender at the World Championships in 2010.
