Pole vaulter Sarah in pole position to win again at SEA Games


PUTRAJAYA: On current form, defending champion Nor Sarah Adi (pic) is not expected to face any problem defending the women’s pole vault gold medal at the SEA Games in Cambodia this May.

The confidence expressed by the country’s athletics head coach Zaki Sadri stems from the outstanding achievement of the Hanoi SEA Games gold medallist last year while also taking into account her success in scooping the silver medal at the Taiwan Indoor Athletics Championships last month.
