PETALING JAYA: National weightlifter Mohd Aznil Bidin sees his inclusion in the Road to Gold (RTG) programme as the perfect tonic to help him make history for Malaysia at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in July.

Aznil and squash player Ng Eain Yow were named on Tuesday as the latest additions to the RTG programme, which will become a full- time initiative from this year.
