In the morning program, where the hammer throwers were arguing, Diana Nusupbekova, a 21-year-old national record holder from Almaty, achieved a tangible advantage over her rivals, sending a projectile in the best attempt at 60.25 meters.
June 12th. The Championship of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Hammer throwing. Women:
1. Diana Nusupbekova (Almaty) – 60.25 m
2. Ekaterina Nesterova (Karaganda region) – 50.71 m
3. Victoria Frolova (North Kazakhstan region) – 47.03 m
Compared to the winning throw at the Kazakhstan Cup in May (56.19 m) Nusupbekova gained more than four meters, but at the end of the competition she still looked a little upset.:
– To be honest, I’m not completely happy with the result, – Diana shared. – Although this is my best shot at official competitions of the season, I still haven’t completely “scattered” yet. In principle, I have already gained a good shape, but today not everything turned out smoothly. During training, it was possible to send a projectile to the area of 62 meters (the record of Kazakhstan set by Nusupbekova last year is 62.50 m – auth.), but now she has made small technical mistakes. The next start will be at the Gusman Kosanov Memorial on June 24-25, where I will try to improve the result.
East Kazakhstanis Artur Gafner and Varvara Nazarova achieved success in the men’s and women’s javelin throwing tournaments held after lunch. They also fell short of their best achievements last year (72.77 and 52.76 m, respectively), but the results shown this time were quite enough for them to win confident victories.
