KUALA LUMPUR – National cycling champion Datuk Mohd Azizulhasni Awang put on a spectacular display to win the gold in the men’s sprint event at the 2023 Hong Kong International Track Cup today.
The dominance of “Pocket Rocketman” during the race at the Hong Kong Velodrome was such that Chinese cyclist Kang Shing Feng could do nothing but be content with the silver.
Fellow Malaysian cyclist Muhammad Shah Firdaus Sahrom won the bronze after he beat South Korean cyclist Kang Seo-jun in the third-fourth place decider.
Meanwhile, national women’s cyclist Nurul Izzah Izzati Mohd Asri rose to the occasion to win the gold in the women’s sprint category.
The 20-year-old also dominated as she beat South Korean Park Ji-hae. – Bernama, May 26, 2023
