Ese Brume broke the Commonwealth Games long jump record on Sunday, jumping an astronomical 7.00m to win gold for Nigeria.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports Ese Brume fouled on her opening attempt in the women’s Long Jump final.
However, in her second attempt, she jumped a Commonwealth Games record of 6.99m before going ahead to shatter that record.
She added another 6.99m and 6.96m in her subsequent jumps, which none of her opponents could match or surpass, securing gold with a jump to spare.
However, on her very last attempt, Brume jumped 7m for another Games record to become the first woman to jump that far in the history of the Commonwealth Games.
Her compatriot, Ruth Usoro ended in 6th place.
