With the new championships record and her personal best mark, Abakumova, just back from a foot injury, secured her first world title after taking a bronze medal in Berlin two years ago.
"I feel double pleasure today. The first reason is that I achieved such a great result and the second because I managed to get over my foot injury," said the Russian girl who ran a victory lap to celebrate.
"I was in a bad position before the championships. I was even thinking whether to fly to Daegu. Almost for a month I had problems with my leg -- I hardly could walk. I was really afraid what will happen in the competition. Thanks to my family and the people who helped me I managed to come back in shape," she added.
Spotakova, holding a world record of 72.28m, also showed her best shape here after suffering injury in the past couple of seasons, taking the silver with her season best of 71.58m.
