Tan's encounter with Chow drew a chorus of envy from netizens, who jokingly asked him to bring them along to Hong Kong next time.

He and teammate Mohd Shah Firdaus Sahrom both confirmed their spots for the keirin and individual sprints in the Paris Olympics later this year after the conclusion of the Track Nations Cup in Milton, Canada on Sunday .Azizul and Shah Firdaus did not compete in Milton but have enough ranking points to qualify for the Olympics on merit.

The confirmation of the two Olympics slots was relayed by Malaysian National Cycling Federation vice president Datuk Amarjit Singh Gill, who is also an executive member of the world body, Union Cycliste Internationale . Double Asian champion Nurul Izzah Izzati Mohd Asri also unofficially made the cut for the keirin event in Paris but this will only be confirmed when the UCI sends the list to member nations on April 22.Azizul, 36, has an outstanding record in keirin and will be hoping to make the podium in what will be his last Olympic games in Paris.
