Reki Roberts claimed gold in the Women’s Heptathlon at the Pacific Mini Games in Palau after a consistent performance while competing in seven challenging events.

In the Men’s Octathlon, Waisale Inoke won gold after dominating in multiple events.

He finished first in the 100 metres, Long Jump, Shot Put, 100 metres Hurdles and Javelin.

He also placed second in the 400 metres and High Jump and scored a total of 4,927 points.
