Steffi Nerius wins World Championship Title in Berlin 2009

There was a bit of a shock in the women's javelin final today in Berlin. The 12th IAAF World Championships in Athletics saw Olympic medal winners Barbara Spotokova and Maria Abakamova beaten into second and third place by STEFFI NERIUS with a big throw of 67.30m.

For anyone who may have thought the 37 year old German was coming close to retirement she proved that she still can be the best. Perhaps the home ground advantage really was in her favour.
