Many are claiming Joseph Schooling as theirs.

"Everyone now wants to claim credit on Joseph Schooling's Olympic gold medal. The Americans say Schooling was trained there. Malaysians say his mum is from Ipoh. British claimed his great grandfather was from Britain. Portugal claimed his great grandmother was Portuguese- Eurasian. China claimed he was 1/2 Chinese.
But the best part comes from Philippines. They say he is brought by his Filipino maid "

Much has been said about various parties trying to claim credit for his gold.

It is very simple really.Just listen very closely to his parents in their interview to know who deserves the credit.The parents of all people would know because they were with him long before he became famous,during good times and bad times.The clues are in the interviews.The father,a Singaporean revealed when and where he actually realised the son was 'special' and was serious about swimming.The mother mentioned when,how and where the son had the opportunity to improve in the pool and begin that journey to becoming an Olympic champ.

It really is that simple.
