"VAN" (Sports Desk - 02.09.2025) :: When the clock ticked down in Chengdu, during The World Games 2025, and the pressure was at its peak, Ying-Ting Huang (TPE) delivered. With a last-second shot in the final against the Netherlands, just days after scoring the Golden Goal in the semifinal against Belgium, the Chinese Taipei star etched his name into The World Games history books. His amazing performances in the Beach Korfball tournament have now earned him the title of Athlete of the Month for August 2025.
Reflecting on those decisive moments, Huang said it was all about trust and instinct.
“In the dying moments against Belgium, our original game plan was to target the female matchups. But as the clock wound down, no clear opening appeared,” he recalled. “A senior teammate trusted me with the ball, and in that perfect moment where timing, trust, and instinct came together, I pulled the trigger. The shot dropped.”
Against the Netherlands, it was a similar story of composure under pressure.
