2015 IAAF World Championship Beijing,China - Men's Hammer Throw Sunday August 23,2015

 

Pawel Fajdek, one of the warmest favourites at the IAAF World Championships Beijing 2015, lived up to his billing to claim a commanding victory with a best of 80.88m and become the third man in history to retain this title.

The bespectacled Pole illustrated his current dominance of the global hammer scene by producing the three longest throws of the competition to strike gold by a comfortable winning margin of 2.33m.
Dilshod Nazarov became only the second athlete from Tajikistan to win a World Championship medal (the other being two-time world hammer champion Andrey Abduvaliyev) to take silver on countback courtesy of his 78.55m effort from Fajdek’s team-mate Wojciech Nowicki, who elevated himself to bronze with his final throw.
