Women Discus Throw - History

Zvereva completed the Belarus discus medal collection by adding gold to the silver and bronze taken by her compatriots in the men’s contest one day earlier. The 34 year-old threw 68.64 in the first round to easily beat the 66.86 by defending champion Chernyavskaya (formerly Burova). Wyludda, the favourite, was beaten again. She stayed in third place until reaching 67.20 in the fifth round, so she did at least repeat her 1991 silver.
“I knew that I had only one chance – to throw the big one in the first round,” said Zvereva. “I’m not sure I would have been the champ had I thrown my best in the second or third round.”
