男子跳高张国伟摘银牌创历史

The IAAF world championships here in Beijing have come to an end.

On the final day of competition, it was China's Lv Huihui taking silver medal in the women's javelin with a new Asian record of 66.13 meters.

"After the 2012 Olympics, my coach stipulated a detailed training plan for me in every year, like 2013, 2014, this year and next year. So it is not a surprise that I can throw such a good result."

China's Zhang Guowei has been forced to settle for silver in the men's high jump.

"Yes, it's a big pity. I feel very sorry that I didn't meet the expectations of my fans. I will work harder and try to do a better job in the future."

It was Canada's Derek Drouin taking the gold.

In the marquis event of the day, it was LaShawn Merritt taking the last leg to lead the United States to a sixth successive world 4x400 meters relay title.

"We didn't have the best of championships as a whole. But each individual I can bet came out and gave it their all. Giving it your all doesn't always mean bringing home a gold. You leave here. And you work on something. You get ready for next year - Rio."

Kenya has earned the top spot at this year's IAAF Championships, topping the medal standings with 7 golds, 6 silvers and 3 bronzes.

Jamaica came in 2nd, followed by the United States.

China finished up in 11th place with 1 gold, 7 silver and 1 bronze.
