Wushu exponent Clement Ting PETALING JAYA: Clement Ting delivered big cheers for Malaysia after striking a surprise gold in the men's gunshu (stick) event at the Wushu Taolu Asia Cup in Jilin, China on Sunday (July 6). The 27-year-old won the final competition with 9.676 points as another Malaysian exponent Danish Aizad Firdaus Chua claimed the silver with 9.573 points.
