The disc contains its own Mondo Duplantis.
19-year-old Mikulas Alkna improved his personal record to 69.00 in the Lithuania Championship.
A nineteen-year-old no longer had to throw up.
Last year, Slovenian discus thrower Christian Sieh was the big sensation in the discus world.
A bowler who coach Daniel Stahl has described as the world’s greatest discus throwing talent of all time.
But the question is whether he was actually beaten up by the 19-year-old Alcana.
– Yes, it is also a giant talent that comes from below. He’s done really well this year and also has a lot to improve from a technical point of view. There is huge potential, says Festin.
Alcana was a sensation in its first year with the two-kilogram discus.
He’s gone from a personal record of 64.87 in his first competition on April 9 to 69.00 now on Sunday.
He beat his compatriot Andrios Godzios in the final by four metres.
Godzius who won the gold at the European Championships in Berlin before Daniel Stahl 2018 and is now third in the world with a shot of 69.39.
My dad was a discus thrower
Micholas Alcana is almost a born discus thrower.
His father, Virgilius, won two Olympic golds and is the second ever with a shot of 73.88.
But when asked if he could get this far in the future, the son answered briefly:
– I’m not a fortune teller. The future will show what will happen.
The Slovenian championship is also scheduled for this weekend.
There Christian See won the world score of 69.91.
