KUALA LUMPUR: Zarif Syahiir Zolkepeli is the likely candidate to replace the late Haziq Kamaruddin to make up the Malaysian men’s recurve trio going for the Tokyo Olympics’ Final Qualification Tournament (FQT) in Paris next month.

It will be a do-or-die mission for Malaysia in the meet from June 18-21 as they need to finish in the top three to continue the strong tradition of competing in the Olympic archery team event since the Beijing Games in 2008.
