On the evening of September 29 in India, Nguyen Huy Hoang won the first gold medal for the Vietnam Swimming Team. Huy Hoang won the 1,500m freestyle final with a result of 15 minutes and 15 seconds 01. Huy Hoang's achievement far surpassed the second place winner Sibirtev (Uzbekistan) with a time of 15 minutes 23 seconds 35.
However, the result of 15 minutes and 15 seconds 01 is still not a good professional achievement of Huy Hoang. This athlete achieved a result of 15 minutes and 11 seconds 24 to win the event at the 32nd SEA Games in Cambodia in 2023. At the 2025 World Championship, Huy Hoang achieved a result of 15 minutes and 19 seconds 39. In the 2025 Asian Swimming Championship, many faces with good results will not participate.
In addition to the above results, the Vietnamese Swimming Team won another silver medal in the men's individual 400m mixed event of Tran Hung Nguyen. The player won the result in 4 minutes 20 seconds 30.
Athlete Yichen Xie (China) won the gold medal with a result of 4 minutes 19 seconds 34. Nguyen Quang Thuan entered the final but ranked fourth with a time of 4 minutes 21 seconds 25.
On the evening of the competition, athlete Vo Thi My Tien won the bronze medal in the women's 400m mixed event (4 minutes 49 seconds 81).
Athletes Nguyen Thuy Hien (50m women's freestyle) and Pham Thanh Bao (50m men's freestyle) did not win medals in the final event.
In the final competition of the day, the men's 4x200m freestyle relay team (Tran Van Nguyen Quoc, Nguyen Huy Hoang, Nguyen Quang Thuan, Tran Hung Nguyen) ranked 7th with a time of 7 minutes 38 seconds and 18 seconds.
