Ng Joe Ee (born 14 December 2005) is a Malaysian rhythmic gymnast. She won two gold medals at the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

Gymnastics career

[edit]

Ng began rhythmic gymnastics when she was four years old.[2]

Ng competed at the 2021 SEA Games and won the silver medal in the all-around behind teammate Koi Sie Yan.[3] She finished 27th in the all-around at the 2022 Baku World Cup.[4] She then represented Malaysia at the 2022 Commonwealth Games and finished fourth in the team event alongside Koi Sie Yan and Izzah Amzan. She qualified for the individual all-around final and finished fifth. She then won gold medals in both the ball and ribbon apparatus finals.[5][6]

At the 2023 Tashkent World Cup, Ng finished 26th in the all-around.[7] She then finished 12th in the all-around at the 2023 Asian Championships.[8] She finished 53rd in the qualification round at the 2023 World Championships.[9] Heading into the Asian Games, Ng injured her back and tore a ligament in her ankle. She still chose to compete and finished 11th in the all-around final.[10][11]

Ng finished fifth in the all-around at the 2024 Bosphorus Cup in Istanbul. In the event finals, she finished eighth with the hoop and fourth with the ball and the clubs.[12] She advanced into the hoop final at the 2024 Asian Championships and finished seventh. This was the only apparatus she competed due to her re-aggravating the back injury.[13] She won a bronze medal in the ribbon final at the 2025 Sofia Cup, and she placed 12th in the all-around.[14] At the 2025 Asian Championships, she placed tenth in the all-around.[15] She advanced into the clubs and ribbon final and finished eighth in both.[16]
