Philippine Sports Commission chair Richie Garcia yesterday said the country’s delegation could have done better as the 27th Southeast Asian Games nears the homestretch in Burma (Myanmar).
“We lost some gold medals that we should have won. We are OK. but we could have done better,” said Garcia, referring to losses in boxing, wrestling and swimming.
Garcia said he’s still waiting for the results of the last few events before he can make an overall picture of the SEA Games campaign.
The Philippines is hoping to finish strong in taekwondo, judo and athletics to achieve the new target of 25 golds from the original goal of 30 wins predicted by PH chef de mission Jeff Tamayo.
