Olympic and world champion Valerie Adams has maintained her unbeaten run in 2011, winning the shot put at the Diamond League meeting at Crystal Palace in London.
Adams was out to 20.07m to hand another defeat to arch-rival Nadezhda Ostapchuk of Belarus. Although Adams' throw was below her best for the season, it was her biggest winning margin, 55cm, over Ostapchuk in their four clashes this year.
Adams said she approached the competition with caution.
"I tweaked a muscle in my neck a little bit in training yesterday, so I wasn't sure whether to compete," she said.
"That was in the back of my mind throughout the competition, so I was a bit cautious - obviously I didn't want to do anything to it with the World Championships so close.
