PANDELELA RINONG

WHY HER? Pandelela Rinong is a national treasure. She first exploded into the public’s consciousness when she won a bronze medal at the 2012 Olympics for 10-metre platform diving. She’s since added to her medal haul at various international competitions, including the World Championships. THAT’S NOT ALL On top of her demanding training schedule, she’s currently studying for a sports science degree at the University of Malaya. GUILTY PLEASURE K-pop. Especially boy band Big Bang.
