Overview by IAAF |
|
|
August 11. 1995 was a good day for repeating world champions. Sergey Bubka won a fifth pole vault title. Moses Kiptanui a third steeplechase gold. Michael Johnson regained his 200m title and Lars Riedel won a hat-trick of discus titles. The giant German had more trouble in the qualifying rounds than the final. because he needed all three throws. In the final he led from the first round and set a championship record of 68.76 in the second. This was then the second longest throw ever at a major championship. The order of the other medallists changed in each of the last three rounds. Horváth was the unlucky one. slipping from second to fourth behind two throwers from Belarus. |
These are the official results of the Men's Discus Throw event at the 1995 World Championships in Gothenburg, Sweden. There were a total number of 43 participating athletes, with the final held on Friday August 11, 1995. |
