Singaporean fencer Maxine Wong won her first individual medal at the Asian Games on Wednesday (Sept 23), becoming the third Singaporean fencer to claim an individual podium finish at the competition.
The 25-year-old secured a bronze medal after reaching the semi-finals at Aichi Sky Expo, where she lost 15-6 to Japan's Yuka Ueno.
Ueno will face South Korea's Park Ji-hee in the final after Park defeated Uzbekistan's Polina Volobueva 15-12 in the other semi-final.
Wong had earlier booked her place in the last four with a 15-6 victory over Hong Kong's Daphne Chan in the quarter-finals.
She began her campaign by advancing from the pools with three wins in five bouts.
Wong then defeated the Philippines' Jana Allysah Catantan 15-2 in the table of 32 before edging China's reigning champion Huang Qianqian 12-10 in the table of 16.
The bronze marks Wong's second Asian Games medal. She made her Asian Games debut in Jakarta in 2018, where she won bronze in the women's team foil event and finished fifth in the individual competition.
Wong has also represented Singapore at the SEA Games in 2019, 2021 and 2023 and 2025, winning two golds and two silvers.
Wong's bronze adds to Singapore's medal haul on the fourth day of competition, with other Singaporean athletes also winning medals in several sports.
Among them are a gold from mixed martial arts fighter Tiffany Teo, silvers for swimmer Gan Ching Hwee and fencer Kiria Tikanah, and a bronze for wushu exponent Zeanne Law.
