The shot put event delivered a captivating surprise as Joe Kovacs outperformed the reigning world and Olympic champion, Ryan Crouser. Kovacs left an indelible mark from the very beginning, launching an impressive opening throw that spanned 22.70 meters. However, Crouser, the world record holder, briefly took the lead with a remarkable throw of 22.91 meters in the second round. Both athletes consistently surpassed the 22-meter mark during the competition, but it was Kovacs, a two-time world champion, who ultimately claimed victory with a spectacular fourth-round performance, reaching a remarkable 22.93 meters. Tom Walsh from New Zealand secured the third spot with a commendable distance of 22.69 meters.
