Record-breakers
You don't just break your existing record by a routine 0.1sec, you destroy it by 1.19sec. You do it on your National Day. And you do it on the first day of competition on the toughest stage in sport.
Last night, at the glowing Water Cube in Beijing, Singapore swimmer Tao Li produced a fittingly luminous performance with a new personal best and a new national record in the 100 metres butterfly.
It was one of those unforgettable nights when a small country makes a big splash and no words could immediately do it justice.

Team manager Ang Peng Siong called it 'awesome'. Coach Peter Churchill described it as 'great'. Teammate Lynette Lim settled for 'amazing'.
And Tao Li?
'I'm so surprised I could do 57.77,' she told The Straits Times.
Her performance has earned her a place in an Olympic semi-final, the first Singaporean female swimmer to do so. She also held the Asian record in the event for a few minutes before China's Zhou Yafei broke it after her.
Of the 16 qualifiers for the semi-final, Tao Li's time was the fourth fastest - a proud moment for someone who has not gone quicker than 58.96 for the past two years.
Another record breaker
To round up an amazing evening, Singapore's Quah Ting Wen swam her heart out to make a personal best of 4:51.25 in the 400m individual medley, reported The Straits Times.
This is another milestone in Singapore's swimming history, as she has beaten the previous record of 4:51.87 set by Joscelin Yeo for the event
