The Philippine swimming women's team entered the 19th Asian Games 4x100m medley relay final at the HOC Aquatic Sports Arena in Hangzhou, China on Friday, September 29.
Tiea Salvino, Thanya Dela Cruz, Jasmine Alkhaldi, and Kayla Sanchez combined for 4:10.80 to finish fifth overall in the heats, where the top eight advanced to the final.The medal round is set later at 9:04 p.m.
With Friday being the last day of competitions for swimming in the ongoing Asian Games, it is also the last chance for the Philippines to end its 25-year medal drought in swimming here.A medal-less run by Salvino, Dela Cruz, Alkhaldi, and Sanchez would mean the country has to wait at least three more years to end the slump.
