Jamie
Christine Lim
Just a few days after the 2023 SEA Games
opening, Jamie Christine Lim already made the headlines after winning gold in
Karate. This is Lim’s 2nd SEA Games gold medal, following her first in 2019.
She is also an Asian Championships 2021 Silver Medalist. Though she’s no doubt
one fierce fighter, the daughter of retired PBA player Samboy Lim is a charmer
on TikTok. Her cute dance moves and inspiring workout videos delight her more
than 296,000 TikTok followers. Wait, there’s more. This charming karate girl is
also a summa cum laude graduate and wellness advocate. Follow this well-rounded
achiever on TikTok @jamiechristinelim.
Agatha Wong
Another TikTok darling is Filipino Wushu
sensation Agatha Wong. This multiple SEA Games champion is once again
determined to achieve gold for the Philippines through her impressive routines.
Wong secured the gold medal for the taijiquan event at the 2017 and 2019
Southeast Asian Games. While this pretty Wushu athlete who’s currently in med
school surely has a hectic schedule, she still has time to update supporters
about her personal journey by posting regularly on her TikTok account—from
sharing videos of how she stays fit to answering questions from fans. Check out
her videos on TikTok @agathawongy.

Filipinos are looking forward to another
thrilling performance of Olympics silver medalist Nesthy Petecio. Set to
compete in the 57-kg action of the women’s boxing competition of the 32nd SEA
Games, Petecio has another opportunity to make her fellow Filipinos proud
through sports. As everyone gets increasingly excited about the upcoming
matches of Petecio, fans can expect snippets of the Davao del Sur-born

Mark Striegl
Aiming to get his second SEA Games gold medal,
mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter Mark Striegl will lead a four-man team
representing the Philippines to compete in the Cambodian martial arts kun
bokator match of the 32nd SEA Games. In the 2019 SEA Games, Striegl bagged gold
in sambo, a Russian martial arts and combat sport. When he’s not in a match,
