KUALA LUMPUR: Zaidatul Husniah Zulkifli has set a new national women’s 100m record of 11.35s at the AGN League Athletics Championships in Pretoria, South Africa. The 23-year-old Penangite finished second in the first heat and her effort was better than the time of 11.50s set by G. Shanti at the SEA Games trials at Merdeka Stadium in May 1993. Zaidatul Husniah, who featured in the Rio de Janeiro Olympics last August, improved on her personal best of 11.62s.
