PETALING JAYA: Nur Shazrin Latif wants to lay down a big marker for Malaysian sailing before she signs off from the sport in the near future.

The 25-year-old has a chance to secure early qualification for the Paris Olympics next year if she wins the gold in the ICLA 6 (Laser Radial) class at the Hangzhou Asian Games in September.
