James smashed SEA Games record too!
Fil-Am athlete James Deiparine nabbed his first gold for the Philippines as he bested his contenders in the swimming event of 2019 Southeast Asian Games, at the Aquatic Center, New Clark City, Wednesday, December 4.
The 26-year old quenched the country's decade-long gold medal drought as he topped in the 100-meter breast stroke event scoring 1:01.46.
James also broke SEA Games record of 1:60 in men's 100-meter breast stroke.
“It was amazing. I could really feel the energy from the crowd. It really fueled me in my race and just helped me give it my all,” the swimming tanker said.
James had clinched two silver medals in last year's SEA Games held in Malaysia.
