    A four-man relay team has become the first quartet from Singapore to swim across the iconic English Channel. They started from Samphire Hoe in England early this morning Singapore time and completed the 33-kilometer swim in 11 hours and 25 minutes, landing at Cap Gris Nez in northern France. The team comprises former national swimmer Mark Tan, as well as Alvin Tan, Lim Chee Kiong, and Ng Chee Soon.
