Even so, it wasn’t enough all the way.
The competitor Kristjan Ceh, from Slovenia, took home the victory in the competition. This by plunging into the history books. After a throw, which measured 71.86 meters, he is tied for fourth all-time. The throw was the longest ever on Estonian soil.
During Friday’s competition, Ceh had two more throws that were longer than over 71 meters. They were 71.70 and 71.19 meters long, respectively.
