And local diver Pandelela Rinong just gave us one.

History-making feat

The two-time Olympic medallist made the country proud by winning a gold medal at the Diving World Cup on Wednesday (5 May), New Straits Times reported.

In the process, the 28-year-old made history by bringing home the country's first ever gold medal at the competition, which was held at the Tokyo Aquatics Centre.

Pandelela had a really good showing in the women's 10m platform individual event, amassing a strong 355.70 total to beat out the competition.

She placed fourth after the opening dive, with a score of 67.50m before taking the lead with a score of 75.40 in her next attempt.

She then achieved a score of 68.80 in her final dive to secure the victory.

Matsuri Arai of Japan finished second with a score of 342.00, while Canada's Caeli McKay won the bronze medal with a 338.55 total.

It was a sweet victory for Pandelela as she only won the bronze medal in the 2018 edition. In her first Diving World Cup outing in 2016, she managed to snag a silver medal.

Pandelela will return to the Tokyo Aquatics Centre for her fourth Olympics campaign in July, and judging by yesterday's performance, we have a strong feeling she will return with a medal.
