Khairul breaks 200m Sukma record again but falls short of national mark

By AFTAR SINGH

KUCHING: It is not a perfect ending but sprinter Khairul Hafiz Jantan can still walk tall.

The 18-year-old Khairul blazed the track with a time of 21:03 seconds in the 200m at the Malaysia Games (Sukma) in Petra Jaya on Friday but it was not good enough to surpass the 48-year-old national record of 20.92.
