WITH the advances in sports science and advancing training techniques, athletic records tend not to last too long.
Take the men's 100m sprint record, for example. Watson Nyambek's time of 10.30s, was set in 1998 before it was finally broken in 2016 by Khairul Hafiz Jantan's time of 10.18s. This record didn't stand as long before 19-year-old sprint sensation Mohd Azeem Fahmi broke the record in 2022 with a 10.09s time.
