LYNELLE LIM EN TONG

Summary

I am a national tennis player, formerly ranked number 1 in Singapore and 824th in the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) rankings. Only a few players in Singapore have broken into the WTA rankings, making this achievement a rare accomplishment. I also have had the privilege of representing Singapore in prestigious events such as the Billie Jean King Cup, the Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games), the 2025 Singapore Tennis Open, and the 2025 Singapore Tennis Invitational Cup. Through my years as a full-time athlete, I have developed invaluable skills such as problem-solving, time management, discipline, and perseverance. Outside of my sport, I have a strong interest in hospitality, engaging with people, and marketing. Additionally, I was a brand ambassador for ASICS, further combining my passion for sports and brand engagement.
