Martina Lindsay Veloso is a national shooter and a silver medallist at the 2014 Youth Olympic Games.
Then just 14, she burst onto the international stage with an unprecedented 10m air rifle victory at the International Shooting Sport Federation World Cup in Munich. She is the youngest ever to take the gold medal in the competition’s history.
In Nanjing, where she was also the youngest YOG competitor, she took silver in the same event.
Martina went on to represent Singapore on home soil at the 2015 Southeast Asian Games. She placed third in her pet event, but could not take bronze due to competition rules where a single country may not sweep the top three medals.
