Zinabu Issah Wins Gold with Record-Breaking 29.25m Throw at WPA 2025 Marrakech Grand Prix
Ghanaian para-athlete Zinabu Issah has made history at the World Para Athletics (WPA) 2025 Grand Prix in Marrakech, Morocco, winning gold in the F57 women’s discus throw with a phenomenal record-breaking distance of 29.25 meters.
This sensational performance not only secured her the top podium spot but also shattered her previous personal best of 26.66 meters, which she set at the same venue during the 2024 edition of the Grand Prix. It also marks a significant improvement from her 24.39-meter throw at the qualification event for the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.
Zinabu’s remarkable achievement further cements her status as one of Ghana’s brightest para-athletics stars and positions her as a top contender for future international events, including the 2025 World Championships and the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
Her dominance in Marrakech highlights the trajectory of a career defined by relentless determination and improvement.
