GYŐRZÁMOLY: UAE’s rising jet ski star, Ali Al Ali, achieved an international milestone by winning silver in the Ski Junior 3.3 category at the Jet Ski World Championship held in Győrzámoly, Hungary.

Estonia’s Ander Hubert Lauri claimed the gold medal, while Hungary’s Lajos Komonyi took third place. France’s Maxime Arthebise narrowly missed the podium, finishing fourth.
