Amit Kumar came really close to winning a medal and it is heartbreaking.
He has thrown 26.82 to deny Amit Kumar a medal.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Marian Kureja has done it.
Marian Kureja from Slovakia is the only person standing between Amit Kumar and a medal.
It is the turn of Dimitrijevic now. The Serbian is on fire and i think he has sealed the gold medal here.
Beles cannot do it, he is out of contention for a medal. Finishes with a best of 26.53 in six attempts.
26.53 from Beles.
Marian Kureja has a personal best of 26.97 meters.
This is it friends, if Radim Beles cannot throw more than 26.63, it is a bronze medal for India.
Milos Mitic is in silver medal position at the moment.
Four attempts done for Milos Mitic.
Milos Mitic is in silver medal position at the moment. Can he jump to gold?
Milos Mitic up for his final set of throws.
Is this not exciting? The only man who can stop Amit Kumar from getting a medal? Radim Beles.
India is nearing to a medal once again folks.!!!!
Jan Vanek is next up. He has completed second set of attempts and is sixth at the moment.
One thing is confirmed at the moment, Amit Kumar can win a maximum of bronze.
Amit completes his set of six attempts with a best of 26.63.
This is it, Amit Kumar is currently in the bronze medal position and there will be a lot of pressure on him, given that Radim Beles is right on his heels.
Amit Kumar to begin his second set of attempts.
Not so good from Dharambir as he has a best of 21.39 from his set of three attempts.
Dharambir's second attempt is a foul.
He throws 21.39 in his first attempt.
Dharambir will be up next. He needs to surpass Amit Kumar to get into a medal position and that seems tough.
Look at the nationality break up of this line-up - Two Serbians, Three from Czech Republic, Two Indians, One Mexican and One Slovakian.
Dharambir is up next. Is it not amazing, an Indian starts proceedings and an Indian ends it.
He reaches 26.23 in his first set of three attempts.
Good but not good enough from the Slovakian.
Marian Kureja is up next.
Top 3 at the moment:
1. Zeljko Dimitrijevic (Serbia) - 29.91
2. Milos Mitic (Serbia) - 26.84
3. Amit Kumar (India) - 26.63
Dimitrijevic kills it and delivers the big blow. A best of 29.91 in his three attempts. Phenomenal
The two Serbians are ruling the roost here.
First attempt and BAM!!!! 29.91. That is phenomenal.
HE BREAKS THE WORLD RECORD and CREATES A NEW ONE!!!!
Here comes the big man now!!! Dimitrijevic.
Top three at the moment:
1. Milos Mitic - 26.84
2. Amit Kumar - 26.63
3. Radim Beles - 26.35
Beles goes one better as he throws 26.35.
He jumps into Bronze medal position.
Brilliant in the second one as Beles throws 25.82.
Radim Beles' first attempt is a foul one.
The thing to notice, at the moment, is that there is a lot of gap between the top two and the rest.
Top 3 at the moment:
1. Milos Mitic (Serbia) - 26.84
2. Amit Kumar (India) - 26.63
3. Jan Vanek (Czech Republic) - 22.89
Radim Beles from Czech Republic is up next for his throw.
Four athletes remain for the first set of attempts and the excitement is building.
Milos Mitic has thrown a personal best to trump Amit Kumar in gold medal position.
He has one attempt remaining and Mitic has already thrown 26.84 meters.
Superb throwing from Milos Mitic as he goes into gold medal position.
No other Asians in this event except for the two Indians. This is some achievement.
After the first set of three attempts get completed, all athletes will throw the second set of three.
