Singapore competed at the 2006 Asian Games in Doha under the IOC country code SIN. It sent its largest contingent since participating in the Asian Games in 1951, with 215 members: 134 athletes and 81 officials. The contingent was led by Chef-de-Mission Annabel Pennefather, and assisted by Deputy Chef-de-Mission Abdul Rahman bin Hassan. The flag-bearer was sailor Tay Junhao Roy [1].
A total of eight gold medals were targeted prior to the commencement of the games, three more than its best-ever haul in the 2002 Asian Games in Busan [2]. These medals were expected in bowling, bodybuilding, sailing and cue sports. By 10 December bowling and bodybuilding delivered a gold each, although the later did not reach their target of two gold medals [3]. Shooting and cue sports failed to deliver, while swimming contributed a surprise gold medal [4]. They reached their target of 8 golds at 13 December 2006, a surprising 5 golds in Sailing, beating China in the Sailing Medal Table, making it Singapore's best ever performance at the Asian games.
