Malaysia competed at the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics, in Nanjing, China from 16 to 28 August 2014.

On 22 August 2014, Cheam June Wei became the first Malaysian to win a Youth Olympic gold medal when he won the badminton mixed doubles gold with Hong Kong's Ng Tsz Yau as his partner.[1] Also, National men archer Mohd Zarif Syahiir won silver in archery mixed team medal with Germany's Cynthia Freywald at the Youth Olympics Games in Nanjing.[2] However both gold and silver was not credited to the individual nation's medal tally as the event was a mixed-National Olympic Committees event in which athletes from different nations team up to compete under the Olympic flag. National woman diver Loh Zhiayi won a silver and bronze medal in the 10m platform individual event and women’s 3m springboard event at the Youth Olympic Games 2014.[3][4]
