"20 meters 42!" The referee confirmed Vince Jackson's result. It was the best result so far in the final of the women's shot put.
The referee checked again before recording the result. It was the first time in a very active career that he had witnessed a situation like Vince Jackson.
An athlete whose first hurl attempt was short of the 17-meter mark was able to surpass the 20-meter mark by a considerable distance on the second throw. The margin between the results was too great. It was if they were the results of two different people. If he had not personally witnessed it, it would be difficult to imagine an athlete producing such different results in the same competition.
As they saw a result that surpassed the 20-meter mark on the big screen, the live audience did not care who did it, they just gave the person a great round of applause.
