Kazakhstan's Zulfiya Chinshanlo breaks her own clean and jerk world record in Incheon Asiad
INCHEON. KAZINFORM - Kazakhstan's Zulfiya Chinshanlo broke her own clean and jerk world record by 1kg with her second attempt at 132kg at the Asian Games on Sunday.
Taiwan's Hsu Shu-ching rewrote the record books as she took the women's 53kg class weightlifting gold. Having seen Kazakhstan's Zulfiya Chinshanlo break her own clean and jerk world record by 1kg with her second attempt at 132kg, Hsu replied with the same weight on her next lift.
It smashed the combined world mark with a total of 233kg, 3kg more than China's Li Ping achieved at the Guangzhou Asiad four years ago.
Olympic champion Chinshanlo, however, retains the title of clean and jerk world record-holder by virtue of being first to achieve 132kg, albeit by a matter of two minutes.
