Yu would win three bronze medals in the 2015 Southeast Asian Games in Singapore. Her three bronze medals came in the 100 m backstroke, the 200 m backstroke, and the 4 x 100 m medley relay, where she teamed up with Hannah Dato, Imelda Corazon Wistey, and 2012 Olympian Jasmine Alkhaldi to a medal finish with a new national record of 4:16.19.[1] Yu would also compete in the 50 m backstroke and the 4 x 100 m freestyle relay, but failed to qualify for the final in the former and finishing 4th in the latter.
