Chinese discus queen Feng Bin threw down the gauntlet (literally!) at the Asian Athletics Championships in South Korea this week, defending her crown with a final-round 61.90m bomb . This marks her THIRD straight continental title since 2019 – talk about boss mode!
The Paris Olympics silver medalist single-handedly kept China’s 12-year women’s discus dynasty alive, pushing their gold medal tally to 12 at the Gumi showdown. Pro tip: Never bet against Feng in clutch moments – her winning throw was the only one to crack 60 meters all day!
“I’m just getting started,” the champ told reporters post-win, hinting at bigger throws ahead. With this momentum, the global athletics scene better watch out when she spins into Paris 2024!
