Athletics: Germany’s Yemisi Ogunyele wins women’s shot put on final throw

Into the final throws in the women’s shot put final now.

People’s Republic of China’s Song Jiayuan finishes her competition with bronze on 19.32m.

Only Germany’s Yemisi Ogunleye can overtake New Zealand’s Maddison-Lee Wesche at the top, and needs 19.87 to take the lead.

Oh and that’s big! That might have been on the 20m mark! She can’t believe it yet, then goes into hope mode. 20.00m flat and the German leads!

Can Wesche respond? No! It’s 19.68 and that means Ogunyele takes gold and Wesche ends up with silver!
