[Title] => Pinoy swimmer pumasa sa Athens pero...
[Summary] => Isa pang Filipino swimmer--si Raphael Timmy Chua ang nakahigit sa Olympic B qualifying time para sa mens 100-meter breaststroke, gayunpaman ang kanyang partisipasyon sa Athens Games ay nasa balag pa ng alanganin.
Nagtala si Chua ng oras na 1 minuto, 4.93 segundo upang dominahin ang nasabing event sa Hong Kong Long Course Championships sa Kowloon noong nakaraang Linggo upang talunin ang pitong iba pang Hong Kong tankers.
