Jason Ong enters his first WOC but is no slouch when it comes to his Othello experience. With more than 30 years of experience in Othello, he is a well seasoned player who may prove to be surprisingly resilient in the grind.

Fast rising star Calvin Koh enters WOC 2023 in his final year as a Junior. Having won double gold medals at the inaugural Asia Pacific Othello Championship that has just passed, he is sure to be one of the favourites to clinch top spots in the Junior Category.

Debutant player Keith Goh hails from one of the top universities in Singapore where there is a rich culture of varsity Othello play. Having done well at the Singapore Nationals, he has emerged as an unassuming candidate for the team and will definitely be aiming for top honours at WOC 2023.
