‘Absolutely a dream’: Aussie steals medal with final throw in dramatic scenes
August 26th, 2023 9:26 am
The 25-year-old sent the spear soaring out to 66.73m to dash the dreams of Flor Denis Ruiz Hurtado, the 32-year-old Colombian who had led from the first round with 65.47m and had looked on course for a shock victory. “In rounds two, three, four and five I felt so close but there was just something missing,” Little said.
“Javelin is not a very popular event in Japan but I think it’s becoming more and more popular. Before, nobody knew about this event but now when I got gold, I think it will be more popular,” she said.
