Japanese teenager Ikee wins 5th gold medal at Asian Games

Rikako Ikee is turning Jakarta's Asian Games pool into her own golden pond.

A golden pond? A strange and possibly unfortunate use of language, but well done Rikako.

Well done!

Now to find a training sanctuary away from the Japanese media circus for the duration till Tokyo 2020.

Beautiful smiles in the photo. Congrats to these Young ladies and all the other athlètes out there.

When do Australia and N.Z get an invite? Scared? :p

Well done to Japan and this young lady though.

Funny how some Australians are Asians when it suits them, but not when they want to boot out Asians from Australia?

We straddle East and West down here and increasingly so.

And please tell me when Australia boots out Asians? Unless their illegals.

I'd argue it makes more sense for them to be in Asian groups than countries in the Middle-East.

She is still in high school too. Amazing achievement
