Golden era coming to an end


Age is catching up: Mohd Ridzuan Puzi will celebrate his 33rd birthday in September, making him the oldest of the top para athletes.

KUALA LUMPUR: Paralympics 100m gold medallist Mohd Ridzuan Puzi has done it all – he has won gold in the 2015 world para athletics championships in Doha, Qatar, and also in the 2016 Rio Olympics.

But he could not defend his gold in the world meet in 2017 and had to settle for silver in London – a sure sign that he is slowing down with age.
