MONACO – Canadian hammer thrower Camryn Rogers finished 10th in the World Athletics women’s athlete of the year voting, the organization said Wednesday.
Rogers, 27, had the five best throws in the world this year, including a toss of 81.13 metres that broke her own North American record and stands second globally all-time.
The reigning Olympic champion and two-time defending world champion from Richmond, B.C., won her second straight Commonwealth Games title this past summer in Glasgow, Scotland.
Rogers was named to the 10-athlete shortlist for the award on Oct. 6. Sprinter Melissa Jefferson-Wooden and hurdler Masai Russell, both from the United States, and Swiss middle-distance runner Audrey Werro were named the three finalists.
Swedish pole vaulter Mondo Duplantis, Brazilian 400-metre hurdler Alison Dos Santos and Kenyan marathoner Sebastian Sawe were named as men’s finalists on Tuesday.
Award winners will be announced Nov. 29.
