He did it again.

Ryan Crouser broke his own world record in the shot put on Saturday at the LA Grand Prix, launching the shot 23.56 meters on his fourth throw of the competition. 

It was part of a series of throws from Crouser that rewrote the all-time lists.

Crouser opened with throws of 23.23m and 23.31m, dangerously close to his world record of 23.37m that he set in 2021. After a third attempt of 22.94m, Crouser found his rhythm again. 

His next time in the ring, there was no doubt.

Crouser’s fourth round throw nearly hit the barrier at the edge of the throwing area.
