Olympian Matt Denny set a new discus world record with a throw of 74.78m at the Oklahoma Throws Series World Invitational, breaking the previous record of 74.35m by Mykolas Alekna. However, Alekna quickly surpassed Denny with throws of 74.89m and then 75.56m, intensifying their rivalry. Denny’s remarkable performance, following his recent achievement of being the first Australian to exceed 70 meters, positions him as a strong contender for gold at the upcoming world titles in Tokyo.
