Trusted partner: Mohd Shah Firdaus Sahrom will be competing along side Azizulhasni Awang in the sprint and keirin.
PETALING JAYA: “I’d be lying if I say there is no pressure,” said Azizulhasni Awang as he counts down the nine remaining days before it’s curtains up for the Tokyo Olympics.
But the track cyclist, who is seen as Malaysia’s best hope for an Olympic gold, is taking the expectations of a nation in his stride.
The only Malaysian world champion in an Olympic sports discipline when he rode to gold in the 2017 World Track Cycling Championships in Hong Kong, Azizul said he is used to the pressure having represented the nation for 15 years.

One by one, the lights started going out of sports from March. Since then, it was mostly sorrow and tears for athletes and sports enthusiasts around the world.
It was supposed to have been a great year, with the Olympic Games expected to hog the limelight in Tokyo and Euro 2020 to spark across 12 European cities, promising football fans some high-octane action.
Instead, both fell to that mighty yet miniscule conqueror called the coronavirus.
Other big events became victims too, like the Premier League, Formula One, the world championships of various other sports, tennis and golf tours, and the basketball, table tennis and football leagues, including our own.
