WIESBADEN (GER): The Commonwealth discus champion and 2009 World champion Dani Samuels will also battle it out this weekend. Choosing to once again open her international campaign at the Werfer-Cup in Weisbaden, Germany, Samuels will look to improve on the 67.99 throw she achieved at the event last year as she inches closer to the 68.72 Australian record. She remains undefeated so far in 2015, taking victory at Australian Athletics Tour meets in Adelaide and Sydney, as well as at the Queensland Athletics Championships and the Australian Athletics Championships. Her season best is 66.21.
