On the association's website, Ortega's record throw is marked as "unconfirmed", which is not clear.
- This was news to me, but it feels sad if they are to have the results deleted. Even though I do not know what has happened, says Daniel Ståhl to Aftonbladet.
Ortega's throw was three meters longer than his previous record.
It is remarkable that the Ecuadorian Juan Caicedos also set a new personal record (69.60) in the same competition as Ortega - and that with the next seven meters. Caicedo's results are also unconfirmed on the International Athletics Federation's website.
