Glasgow 2026: No Valid Throw For Muhammad Irfan In Men’s Discus Final

Kuala lumpur: National discus thrower Muhammad Irfan Shamsuddin ended the men's final without registering a valid mark in the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games at the Scotstoun Stadium here, today. Muhammad Irfan was recorded as no mark after failing to produce a legal throw alongside Cameroon's Lucien Wangba in a final featuring 13 athletes.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Australia's Matthew Denny claimed the gold medal with a throw of 67.73 metres while Jamaica's Fedrick Dacres took silver with a throw of 65.10 metres. England's Lawrence Okoye completed the podium, securing the bronze medal with a throw of 64.45 metres.

The result left Muhammad Irfan, who had previously won the men's discus gold medal at seven consecutive SEA Games editions, without a place in the final standings. In June, the 30-year-old improved his own national record with a throw of 62.87 metres at a competition in Veszprem, Hungary.
