BANGKOK, Dec 16 — Malaysian athletics star Andre Anura Anuar redeemed his failure to clinch a hattrick of men’s triple jump golds on Thursday by winning the men’s long jump event at the Thailand 2025 SEA Games at Stadium Suphachalasai here today.

The success saw the 26-year-old athlete leap 7.71 metres (m) to claim gold, ending Malaysia’s 22-year drought in the event, last won by Shahrul Amri Suhaimi at the 2003 edition in Vietnam.
