NAMA penembak wanita, Nur Suryani Mohd. Taibi mula menjadi sebutan apabila dia muncul penyumbang pingat emas pertama kontinjen Malaysia pada Sukan SEA 2011 di Indonesia, November lalu. Lapor SHANIKA ABDULATIB.

Tidak lama kemudian, Nur Suryani meneruskan momentum kejayaannya apabila mengesahkan slot pada temasya Sukan Olimpik 2012 di London, Julai depan.

Ia merupakan satu pencapaian yang cukup membanggakan kerana Nur Suryani, 29, muncul penembak wanita raifal pertama negara layak bertanding di temasya Olimpik.

Kejayaan penuh bermakna itu dicapai dalam acara 10 meter Air Rifle pada Kejohanan Menembak Asia di Doha, awal Januari lalu.

Rentetan kejayaan yang dicipta, Nur Suryani dinobatkan sebagai pemenang Anugerah Atlet Terbaik Persatuan Penulis-Penulis Sukan Malaysia (SAM)-100Plus-Kementerian Belia dan Sukan (KBS) 2011.
"Terharu dan terkejut. Itu perasaan saya apabila dipilih sebagai atlet terbaik," kata Nur Suryani selepas majlis penganugerahan tersebut yang berlangsung di sebuah hotel di Petaling Jaya, semalam.

Pemilihan tersebut sekaligus meletakkan Nur Suryani sebaris dengan penerima terdahulu seperti Datuk Nicol Ann David (2005, 2007), Datuk Lee Chong Wei (2008), Mohd. Azizulhasni Awang (2009) dan Pandelela Rinong (2010).

Nur Suryani menambah, anugerah itu akan menaikkan semangatnya ketika bertanding dalam beberapa siri Kejohanan Dunia sebelum beraksi di London.

"Kejohanan Dunia yang bermula April nanti akan menjadi pendedahan penting bagi saya dan dalam masa yang sama, memberi saya perasaan dan suasana bertanding di Olimpik kelak," katanya.

Dengan kejayaan itu, Nur Suryani membawa pulang hadiah wang tunai RM10,000 selain trofi yang disampaikan Menteri Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek.

Dalam pada itu, Anugerah Kewartawanan Sukan Utama SAM-KBS 2011 diraih wartawan Malay Mail, Haresh Deol, sekaligus membolehkannya membawa pulang wang tunai RM10,000 beserta trofi.
Kategori Ulasan Terbaik dirangkul oleh wartawan Utusan Malaysia, Muhammad Dayne Azmin Ghazali yang meraih RM3,000.

Wartawan Kosmo! Shahril Nizam Abdullah dan Helmi Talkah juga tidak pulang dengan tangan kosong apabila masing-masing meraih RM1,000 dan RM500.

Shahril Nizam telah disenarai pendek dalam kategori Ulasan Terbaik dan Laporan Khas Terbaik, manakala Helmi (Berita Terbaik).

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

Badminton: Fans rooting for all-Malaysian semis

Reports: RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: The home fans will be rooting for an all-Malaysian men’s singles semi-final between Lee Chong Wei and Liew Daren. But Chong Wei is more fancied to advance than Daren in quarter-final matches against Indonesian Simon Santoso and Dane Peter Gade-Christensen respectively at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Yesterday, Chong Wei defeated Vietnamese Nguyen Tien Minh 21-9, 18-21, 21-7 in a second-round match that saw the world number one struggling to adapt to the draught in the stadium in the second game. And Daren continued a fairy tale run in his home Open, blowing away a toothless Hsueh Hsuan-yi of Taiwan 21-14, 21-12. Although Choong Wei had to slog for the win over Tien Minh, the top seed and defending champion felt that he was playing better by the day. “I got off to a good start but found it hard to cope with the draught. I tried to catch up after losing my momentum but that did not happen and I decided to conserve energy for ...

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
