In our Road to Paris series, we cast a look at the Malaysian contingent heading to the upcoming Summer Olympics. In our first episode, we shine a spotlight on diver Bertrand Rhodict Lises as he sets off for his first ever Games after being the first Malaysian athlete to secure his spot at the 2023 World Aquatics Championships. He joins us to discuss his diving career, how he's preparing for Paris 2024, his aspirations beyond the Olympics, and his hopes as part of the next generation of Malaysian diving.
