BEIJING, Aug 17 (Bernama) -- Malaysia's presence in the Olympics track and field contest has shrivelled to only woman walker Yuan Yu Fang.
After pole vaulter Roslinda Samsu's exit Saturday, high jumper Lee Hup Wei followed suit Sunday.
Hup Wei managed only 2.20m and was placed 32nd out of 39.
Only the top 12 qualified for the final with the cutoff at 2.25m.
The Malaysian, making his Olympics debut, struggled with his jumps. He cleared 2.15m only after a second try and 2.20m in his third attempt before faltering at 2.25m.
Yu Fang's 20km walk is scheduled on Aug 21.
