KUALA LUMPUR: National powerlifter Bonnie Bunyau Gustin faced little opposition  to win the gold medal as he dominated the Para Powerlifting World Cup in Beijing China on Sunday.

The Sarawakian clinched the gold with a best lift of 215kg at the China Administration of Sports for Persons with Disabilities.

Jesus Cuevas Cisneros of Cuba won the silver with a lift of 175 kg while Ramubhai B Bhambava of India took the bronze with a 151kg effort.

Bonnie’s effort is a far cry from his world record of 232kg he set when defending his Paralympic Games gold medal in Paris 2024. - Bernama
