Truly Asia’s sprint king

You raise me up: Cyclist Azizulhasni Awang is lifted by Japanese sprinters Yuta Wakimoto and Tomohiro Fukaya after winning the sprint final at the Asian Track Cycling Championships in Jincheon, South Korea.

PETALING JAYA: Track cyclist Azizulhasni Awang bowed to the ground in gratitude after dismounting from his bike.

He wobbled a bit but it’s no surprise as he had to give his all to beat Japan’s Yuta Wakimoto to claim a career defining 10th Asian Track Cycling Championships gold medal in Jincheon, South Korea.
