KUALA LUMPUR: National track cycling icon Datuk Mohd Azizulhasni Awang added a bronze medal to his weekend haul at the 2026 UCI Track Cycling World Cup in Perth, Australia.
The 38-year-old secured third place in the men’s individual sprint event after defeating Mikhail Yakovlev 2-0 in the third-fourth place decider at the Speed Dome.
