Glorious girls for the Games


Amazing feat: Sailor Nur Shazrin Mohd Latif has qualified for two Olympic Games, including the postponed Tokyo 2020 while Farah Ann Abdul Hadi (right) has been focused on Tokyo since just missing out on Rio.

PETALING JAYA: For pint-sized Nur Shazrin Mohd Latif, her journey in sailing has not been, well... smooth sailing.

When she first took up the laser radial category at the age of 17, the girl from Pahang was considered too puny and was told to put on weight. She stood at 50kg at the time.
