THE Olympic gold medal wait for Malaysia is set to continue following the disqualification of former world keirin champion and medal hopeful Azizulhasni Awang from his pet event in the Olympic Games last night.

It was a big blow to Malaysia’s hopes of seeing a glorious finish from Azizul in the event that he had always excelled in the past but the 36-year-old found himself kicked out of the competition for overtaking the derny before it pulled off the track in the first round heat at the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines Velodrome.
