JAKARTA - Indonesian sprinter Lalu Muhammad Zohri, failed to win a medal in the men's 100 meters final at the Athletics branch, the 2023 Asian Games. In the final, the runner from NTB only managed to record a time of 10.16 seconds, and was in sixth place.

Zohri in the semifinals has actually managed to lower his personal record this year by more than four tenths with a time of 10.12 seconds. But in the final, he failed to repeat that feat.

In the final of the 19th Asian Games men's 100m run in Hangzhou 2023 which took place on Saturday 30 September, there was double happiness for Southeast Asian fast runners, Puripol Boonson from Thailand and Muhammad Azeem Fahmi from Malaysia, who won silver and bronze medals. While the gold was won by Xie Zhenye, the host coach, China.

Xie took the lead from the start, with the fastest reaction among other runners. He easily finished the race in 9.97 seconds. Initially, the record time seemed to match his personal record. But it was later discovered that wind speeds when the race exceeded the allowed limits for record recording (+2.4 meters per second wind from behind).

Boonson, who previously set a personal record of 10.06 seconds in the semifinals, will also break the record if the final result is valid for record records, with a time of 10.02 seconds when he finished runners-up behind Xie and ahead of other runners along the way.

Meanwhile, Azeem may be a surprise bronze medalist. He won Malaysia's second medal in the competition (10.11 seconds), after previously Shereen Samson won bronze in the women's 400m run.
