He then added another bronze medal in the 200-metre backstroke, giving Team Aruba a major boost and reinforcing the swimmer's position as one of the country's leading international athletes.

The double-medal performance is a major moment for Aruba sport, highlighting the island's growing ability to compete successfully at high-level regional and international events.

Groters' latest results are also expected to generate fresh attention for Aruba's swimming programme and the development of young athletes, as the country continues to build its sporting presence beyond its shores.
