SEPANG: “No matter what, I have never not brought home a medal for Malaysia.” That was what national shot putter Muhammad Ziyad Zolkefli(pix) said on his return home yesterday after missing out on the gold medal at the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics.

Muhammad Ziyad, who went to Tokyo as the reigning world record holder and defending champion in the F20 (intellectual impairment) category, clearly could not hide his disappointment when speaking to the media at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) here.
