National track cycling champion Datuk Mohd Azizulhasni Awang after winning the men’s elite sprint at the 2024 National Track Cycling Championships at the National Velodrome in Nilai yesterday. — BernamaNILAI, May 22 — National track cycling champion Datuk Mohd Azizulhasni Awang may have to pay a high price by skipping the final stages of the men’s sprint competition to focus on his favourite event, keirin, at the 2024 Paris Olympics .
“At the 2024 Olympics, the sprint event is held first, followed by keirin, so the plan is, if I can reach the final , I will push myself to finish it. Azizulhasni admitted that he threw his race in the men’s sprint preliminary rounds at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics after being eliminated in the 1/8 repechages to concentrate on the keirin event, where he eventually won silver.
Despite a punishing schedule which saw him competing in 21 races at the Japan Track Cup, Azizulhasni still brought home two bronze medals in the sprint and keirin events.
