At the South Asian Athletics Championship 2025, Fathima Shafiya Yamick delivered a historic performance, clinching a golden sprint triple which she capped off with a record-breaking run in the 200m.
The 26-year-old speedster won:
100m Gold – Meet Record: 11.53s
200m Gold – Meet Record: 23.58s
4x100m Relay Gold – Meet Record: 44.70s
Dropped from the 2019 South Asian Games squad, Yamick hailing from Viharamahadevi GC Kandy has made a remarkable comeback, rewriting the record books and reaffirming her place among Sri Lanka’s sprinting elite.
