Kanter unseats discus king

Back


Estonia's Gerd Kanter grabbed gold in the world championships discus competition on Tuesday to hand Lithuania's double defending champion Virgilijus Alekna his first taste of defeat in two years on Tuesday. A Baltic battle had been expected between the only two finalists to go over 70 meters this year, but Alekna was slowed by an injury. Kanter proved a comfortable winner with his third throw of 68.94 meters. "There will be a big party today; it is my day," the 28-year-old Kanter told reporters. (WCSN, WCSN.com)
