A few days ago, Bosnian shot putter performed in the outdoor competition in USA. He won second place by throwing a ball 19.70 meters. This was the first outdoor competition for him this season.
After only few days, he performed in another outdoors competition and made his personal record. He threw the ball 20.00 meters, which was enough for the 4th place.
The first place went to Joe Kovacs, American, current winner of the World Cup that was held in Beijing.
The second place went to Nicolas Scarvelis, who threw the ball 20. 61 meters. An interesting connection between Nicholas and Pezer is that two of them competed against each other at the World Junior Championships in Barcelona in 2012. Pezer finished on the second place back then, while Nicholas ended as tenth.
Third place went to Braheme Days, who threw the ball 20.21 meters. Braheme is another thrower that Mesud met before. Together, they performed at the World Championship for younger juniors in Lille, 2011. Braheme was more successful than Mesud back then as well. He finished on third place, while Mesud was sixth.
“Mesud Pezer threw a ball 20 meters outdoors for the first time and also improved his personal record. It’s nice to see him throwing over 20 meters after his results of 20.22 meters, 20.6 meters and 20.01 meters in hall this winter. Mesud is not throwing the best technically, so we can expect from him much more and a new personal record outdoors. I congratulate him on this result, “said Pezer’s coach, Vesteinn Hafsteinsson, as announced from the Athletic Federation of BiH.
