Para-Athletics Worlds: Sun Pengxiang, Wen Xiaoyan Set World Records As Chinese Stars Dominate
With a throw of 48.94 meters in his second attempt, the 33-year-old Sun Pengxiang wowed the Universiade Memorial Stadium in Kobe by shattering the world record previously set by himself last year in Hangzhou. "I didn't see that coming because my recent training lacked intensity due to my age and injuries, and I'm delighted with today's performance," said Sun, adding that he would further adjust himself for the upcoming 2024 Paris Paralympic Games.
Iran's Sadegh Beit Sayah and India's Navdeep took the silver and bronze with throws of 47.92m and 42.82m respectively, in the field competition for athletes with short stature.
