Marestella Torres-Sunang (born February 20, 1981) is a Filipino long jumper.
Torres-Sunang started long jumping in 1994 in Negros Oriental.
Her talent was recognized by her teachers but she often trained on a limited budget, doing jumps on rice husks rather than a proper sand pit.
Torres-Sunang finished fourth at the 2002 Asian Championships and won the silver medal at the 2005 Asian Championships.
She also competed at the 2005 World Championships without reaching the final.
She also participated in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China.
In 2009, she surprisingly won the 2009 Asian Championships with a leap of 6.51 m.
Her personal best jump of 6.71 m, achieved at the 2011 Southeast Asian Games in Palembang, is currently the Southeast Asian Games Record.
Torres-Sunang finished 22nd of 32 at the 2012 London Olympic Games, failing to advance to the final.
On April 7, 2016, Torres-Sunang, who came from maternity with the help of her coach and sponsor James Michael Lafferty and nutritionist-wife Carol Lafferty, won the gold medal in the women's long jump event of the 2016 Ayala-PATAFA Philippine National Open Invitationals held at the Philsports Arena.
In May 2016, the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) formally accepted the nomination made by the Philippine Athletics Track and Field Association (PATAFA) for the universality slot of Torres-Sunang in the 2016 Summer Olympics.
However, the slot was junked after the inclusion of marathon runner Mary Joy Tabal in the Rio-bound Philippine delegation.
In July 2016, Torres-Sunang achieved the Olympic qualifying standard in the Women's Long Jump in the Kazakhstan Open and setting a new national record of 6.72 meters, thus making it into the Rio Olympics.
This would be the third straight and the final Olympic appearance for the Filipina long jumper, who is the most senior member of the national contingent.
She is married to a fellow Filipino athlete, shot putter Eliezer Sunang with who she has a son.
