Teenager Jiang Jingyuan won the gold in the women's shot put at the Shizuoka International Track and Field Championships, rewriting the 10-year-old record in Taiwan

Not long ago, Chinese Taipei women's Jiang Jingyuan, who missed the record in Taiwan at the 2025 All Taiwan High School Student Games, won the gold medal with 17.83 meters in the women's shot put final of the Shizuoka International Track and Field Championships in Japan on the 3rd, breaking the 10-year-old Taiwan record as she wished.

Jiang Jingyuan Shizuoka Invitational won the gold medal in the women's shot put

Jiang Jingyuan, a senior in high school, won the bronze medal at the World U20 Athletics Championships last year, and then plans to overturn the national record, but although she won gold at the Taiwan High School Student Games in April, she failed to break Lin Jiaying's record of 17.48m set at the 2014 Incheon Asian Games.

In order to prepare for the Asian Championships on the 27th, Jiang Jingyuan first went to Shizuoka to compete, and today he continued the good situation of the Taiwan High School Student Games, throwing 17.41 meters on the fourth attempt to set a career best, and jumped to the leading position, and was only 7 centimeters away from the national record.

Jiang Jingyuan, who gained confidence, let go with the last throw, rewrote the personal record again with 17.83 meters, and won the gold domineeringly, while breaking the whole Taiwan record. Ye Zhengyan, chairman of the Chinese Taipei Athletics Association, immediately awarded a bonus of NT$40,000 (about 9,500 yuan) to encourage Jiang Jingyuan, and coach Lu Jingyi received a bonus of NT$20,000.
