Young Nesterenko sets new World best in Antalya 01. April 08

Ukrainian throwing protégée, Mykyta Nesterenko managed to improve his own incredible World best performance with a 1.5kg Discus to 74.32m on Sunday.
Last year's World Youth Champion achieved his former best mark of 72.31m in Beograd at the European Olympic Youth Festival last July.

With under a month to go until the young super-throwers 17th birthday, he blasted to success at the International Youth Match in Antalya last weekend, taking first place exactly 23m ahead of Yaraslau Hramyka of Belarus.

The match, which was part of a series of competitions between Bellarus, Latvia, Ukraine and Turkey, saw Nesterenko improved his former best throw twice; first in fourth to 72.97 and then in the fifth round to the massive 74.32 (f-71.93-71.55-72.97-74.32-72.95) - the new World best mark for the event.

The match was won by Ukraine in both men and women's sides. Turkey and Latvia followed suit in second and third.
