𝐍𝐢𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚 🤝𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐬 🥈Olympian and World Championship finalist Nicola Tuthill delivered a superb performance in Nicosia, winning SILVER in the women’s hammer throw with a new PERSONAL BEST of 72.48m🤩 The result is even more impressive after a disrupted few months for the UCD AC athlete following the World Championships in Tokyo📈 Tuthill has a tumultuous relationship with the European Throwing Cup. In Leiria 2022, she suffered a fractured and dislocated elbow during the U23 hammer competition. But she returned stronger than ever, becoming the first Irish athlete to win a medal at the event with silver in Leiria 2023, repeating the feat again the following year🤩 Last year in Nicosia, she made history by becoming the first Irish gold medallist at the European Throwing Cup, winning the U23 hammer title👏 Another incredible performance from Nicola. 🇮🇪💪 Women’s Hammer Throw Results: 🥇 Katrine Koch Jacobsen – 75.52m (NR, WL) 🥈 Nicola Tuthill – 72.48m (PB) 🥉 Guðrún Karítas Hallgrímsdóttir – 71.41m (NR, PB) #IrishAthletics #HammerThrow #EuropeanThrowingCup
