Beaten teen tanker feels a winner
December 6, 2006 | 12:00am
DOHA Despite two fifth place finishes, youthful tanker Denjylie Cordero is having the time of her life at the Hamad Aquatic Centre here.
Not only does she get the chance to mix it up with the regions best but also she relishes the opportunity to further hone up her craft.
"I feel great because I came in fifth," said Cordero after the first heat of womens 100m breaststroke which drew five entries yesterday.
Corderos 1.17.33 clocking could be way behind the 1.09 and 1.10s churned out by the Japanese and Chinese swimmers, but the future seems to look bright for the 14-year-old product of the SEA age-groupers.
"Im happy because I got my best time in this race," said Cordero, who also placed fifth in the 50m breaststroke Saturday. Dante Navarro
