Name: Terry Tay Height: 174.5 cm Working / Career: KPMG Age began gymnastics and reason for starting: 6 years old, just for fun. Fun fact: I quit gymnastics for a few weeks just after joining- was punished by being made to do a handstand for talking too much during class. Thankfully it was just a phase, and I joined shortly after. It's funny seeing how far one has come! First Club: Learn to Play First Coach: Qiao Ya Current Club: National Training Centre Current Coach: Park Gi Yong Favourite apparatus: Roman Rings Favourite skill: Iron Cross Personal Best Recorded and the Event in which it was recorded: 2021 National Championships – Floor Exercise 14.450 Major Sporting Achievements:

Sporting Motto or Saying: Enjoy the process, the outcome is a bonus. Who is your favourite gymnast and why ?: Gabriel Gan. He was my previous team captain who led by example, spent time just chilling, and taught me a lot of life lessons. Favourite music: Chill house Favourite movie: In-time My favourite local dish is: Black carrot cake My main support group consist of: Family, coach and teammates If I was not an athlete, I would like to be: A restaurant chef One interesting fact that most people do not know about me is: Not a fan of soft drinks. What is the greatest challenge you have faced in your sporting career? How did you overcome that? A major wrist, and shoulder surgery back in 2017. Honestly thought that was the end of my gymnastics career. I showed up post-surgery, put in the hard (and painful) work of rehabilitation and recovery. Setting goals and a support system definitely helps! |
