The best results of the women’s events on day two came in the throws. In unfavourable weather conditions with temperatures around 12°, Obergföll was outstanding. After opening with 64.32m she produced a second round throw of 68.86m. Obergföll then continued with 64.81m, 64.28m, X, and 65.30m. Katharina Molitor was second with a personal best of 64.67m.

 

“It could not have worked out better for me in these conditions. I am satisfied and well on the way to the World Championships," said Obergföll, who was second in the Monaco leg of the Samsung Diamond League on Friday night. "It is my aim to win a medal in Daegu and I hope to further improve my season’s best in Korea.”
