PETALING JAYA: The long wait for Olympics action – and maybe the country’s first gold medal – just got a little bit longer for track cyclist Azizulhasni Awang. Azizul’s pet event, the men’s keirin where he stands a good chance of delivering the long-awaited gold medal, will be held only on Aug 8 next year – the last day of the rescheduled Games.
It will also be the closing day of the Games, which will have its opening ceremony on July 23.
