The flag bearer of the Philippines will be golfer and Asian Games gold medalist, Yuka Saso. Isn't she the first golfer to be flag bearer at the Youth Olympics? Please correct me, if I'm wrong.

:SRI will have 13 athletes (Archery 1, Athletics 4, Badminton 1, Basketball 4, Gymnastics 1, Shooting 1, Swimming 1). 


I'm still amazed they qualified a gymnast! Even semi-decent nations in this sport with good results in recent women's artistic gymnastics competitions like Kazakhstan, India, Chinese Taipei and Indonesia failed to qualify a girl for the YOG.

Indonesia's case is lack of fund and planning..

Denmark has announced their flag bearer. It will be golf player, Nicolai Højgaard. Højgaard is world champion for junior teams. He also won individual silver at the Junior World Championship. This year he won the European Championship for Amateurs.
