PROVO, Utah — BYU women’s tennis sophomore Sue Yan Tan has been selected to represent Singapore at the 33rd Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Bangkok, Thailand, scheduled for Dec. 9–20, 2025.
Tan earned her national team selection through the Singapore National Olympic Council’s (SNOC) official nomination and selection process. Athletes are chosen from a long list submitted by the Singapore Tennis Association, with selections based on national-squad status, performance benchmarks and international results.
“Sue has worked tremendously hard to return from her injury, and we're thrilled to see her healthy and competing at a high level again,” BYU head coach Holly Hasler said. “As a sophomore, she continues to be an incredible representative of BYU tennis, and we know she'll bring that same excellence as she competes for her home country. We will be cheering her on from Utah.”
A key contributor for the Cougars, Tan made an immediate impact in her freshman season, finishing the 2024–25 campaign with a 14–7 singles record and an 11–7 doubles record. She earned multiple postseason honors, including being named a 2025 ITA Division I Scholar-Athlete, a member of the 2025 ITA All-Academic Team, and a 2025 Big 12 Spring Academic All-Rookie Team honoree. Her success across both singles and doubles solidified her as a reliable and versatile presence in BYU’s lineup.
“I’m super grateful for the chance to represent Singapore at the SEA Games,” Tan said. “It’s an honor to compete on a stage like this, and I’m really excited for the opportunity. I’m thankful for all the support from everyone at BYU — coaches, teammates and staff — and I can’t wait to take what I’ve learned here and apply it on the international stage.”
Tan will compete for Singapore throughout the duration of the SEA Games before returning to Provo for the 2026 spring season.
