PETALING JAYA: Johnathan Wong will not be going at the Paris Olympics to make up the numbers but to win Malaysia’s first medal in shooting.

The Malacca-born shooter will be competing at the Olympics for the second time after making his debut at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro and he personally wants to go for a podium finish despite the odds stacked against him in the men’s 10m pistol.
