An outing short as the sprint but Azreen praised for courage


PETALING JAYA: It was a short outing but a memorable one for national sprinter Azreen Nabila Alias.

Instead of giving in to nerves in her first Olympics, the 21-year-old Azreen gave it her all to improve her personal best of 11.77s in the women’s 100m preliminary round heat one at the Olympic Stadium in Tokyo yesterday.
