Nghe An athlete won the 800m diving gold medal at the 32nd SEA Games

On the competition day of May 14, the Vietnamese sports delegation won a total of 20 more gold medals, in which diving consecutively brought Vietnam 5 gold medals.

The first Gold medal winner for the diving team on May 14 was athlete Nguyen Tran San San in the women's 800m air hose event. San San broke the SEA Games record with a time of 7 minutes 13 seconds 91.

The remaining Gold medals went to Nguyen Trong Dung (men's 800m air hose), Nguyen Thi Thao (women's 50m air hose), and Vu Dang Nhat Nam (men's 400m air hose pair). Then Nguyen Tien Dat, Do Dinh Toan, Pham Thi Thu, Cao Thi Duyen, and Nguyen Thanh Loc won the Gold medal in the 200m air hose mixed relay.

Notably, Nguyen Trong Dung initially won the men's 800m inflatable hose event, but his achievement was not recognized because the referees thought he had violated the rules. In addition, the remaining Vietnamese athlete, Kim Anh Kiet, was also determined to have violated the rules. Therefore, the Gold Medal was announced by the organizing committee to be awarded to the Thai athlete.

However, after reviewing the situation, the referee determined that only Kim Anh Kiet had committed the offense. Nguyen Trong Dung was still awarded the Gold Medal in the men's 800m inflatable hose event and the Thai athlete received the Silver Medal.
