Bryan doubtful about how Australian coach can impact national set-up


Unconvinced: Bryan Nickson Lomas competing in the men’s 10m platform at the 2012 London Olympics. The former diver is unsure of the NSI’s decision to appoint Christian Booker as the new head coach.

PETALING JAYA: Two-time Olympian diver Bryan Nickson Lomas has reservations about the National Sports Institute’s (NSI) decision to hire an Australian to replace Yang Zhuliang as the national head coach.

Australia has produced respectable results in the sport over the last 20 years but Bryan said their coaches’ track records are not as strong as those from China.
