NEW YORK (Reuters) - Tenacious tiger-tattooed Aryna Sabalenka embodied the spirit of her favourite animal in New York this year as she clawed her way back from injury and disappointment to hoist the U.S. Open trophy at last.

Dr Lim Shi Ping, a medical officer at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital's accident and emergency department, saved the life of a man who had a heart attack at Yishun MRT. - Photo: ST

Dr Lim, who has been a doctor for two years, pushed through the crowd and introduced himself as a medical doctor. The man had no pulse by then. “Outside, we have to try to make use of what’s available and get the help of other people,” he added. Dr Lim attended to the man, who subsequently made a full recovery and was discharged after five days. Dr Lim said he never told the patient that he was the man who helped save his life at the MRT station.

Dr Lim, Leong and three other SMRT staff who responded to the incident will each receive a Singapore Civil Defence Force Community Lifesaver Award on Sept 27.
