Woo Sang-hyeok, a member of the Workplace Athletics Department of Yongin City Hall, climbed to the podium at the ‘Diamond League Competition’ held in Doha, Qatar on the 6th, surpassing 2m 27cm and taking second place. Unfortunately, he failed to win the tournament for the second time in a row, but he was evaluated for doing well in a situation where his condition was not perfect, such as suffering from pain in his ankle and heel.
Woo Sang-hyeok, who returned to Korea on the 7th, met Lee Sang-il, the mayor of Yongin, ahead of the remaining schedule of the forced march, and expressed confidence that he would achieve good results in the remaining tournaments rather than regret.
Yongin Special Mayor Lee Sang-il said, “Citizens feel reassured because Woo Sang-hyeok, who always has a bright expression, does his best in every competition.” I do,” he encouraged.
Mayor Lee said, “The grades are good, but I hope you will be careful not to get injured as your ankles and heels are not completely healed yet.”
Player Woo Sang-hyeok said, “I participated in the match in Doha with pride in the support of Yongin City and the citizens engraved on the uniform.” I will do well in various competitions to be held in the future.”
Woo Sang-hyeok, who reached the podium at the first outdoor event of this year’s international competition, headed to Yecheon-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do to participate in the KBS Cup National Track and Field Championships to be held on the 9th.
The competition opened on the 5th as a competition that also served as the national selection match for the Hangzhou Asian Games, and the men’s general high jump competition was scheduled for 11:00 am on the 9th.
Woo Sang-hyeok, who is a strong medalist in the Asian Games, will return to Korea on the 7th and compete in the tournament even following traveling on the 7th, according to the notice of the Korea Association of Athletics Federations that players who do not participate in the national team selection competition will be excluded from the selection.
