Hup Wei pleased with silver as teammate Nauraj grabs gold

Dynamic duo: Nauraj Singh Randhawa and Lee Hup Wei showing off their men’s high jump medals at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil yesterday.

FORMER Asian champion Lee Hup Wei paid his own way to train under Australian coach Alex Ste­wart in Sydney for two months in the hope of winning the men’s high jump gold at the Kuala Lumpur SEA Games.

Unfortunately for the 30-year-old Hup Wei, he had to settle for second best behind teammate Nauraj Singh Randhawa.
