National track cycling ace Mohd Azizulhasni Awang put up a blistering ride en route to securing Malaysia's first ever gold medal at the UCI Track Cycling World Championships in Hong Kong .
Azizulhasni Awang made history on the Rio Velodrome Tuesday night as the 28-year-old won Malaysia's first ever Olympic Games cycling medal by finishing third in the men's Keirin final. In the final, which was twice delayed with riders passing the derny, Awang positioned himself in first wheel then jumped onto the wheel of Jason Kenny around the final bend, getting the better of a fading Joachim Eilers (Germany) to claim bronze with Matthijs Buchli (Netherlands) winning silver.
