Amber Yobech

Amber Sikosang Yobech (born January 27, 1991) is a Palauan swimmer, who specialized in sprint freestyle events.[1] At age seventeen, she became one of the youngest swimmers to mark their Olympic debut at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Swimming in heat three of the women's 50 m freestyle, Yobech threw down her personal best in 30.00 seconds to claim the third spot in a splash-and-dash-finish. Yobech failed to advance to the semifinals, as she placed seventy-first overall out of ninety-two entrants in the prelims.[2]
