The Women’s 52KG class at the 2024 International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) World Classic Championships was highlighted by Evie Corrigan‘s overall win and Pleun Dekkers new raw squat world record to reach the podium.

However, Dekkers wasn’t the only athlete in the weight class to sketch a new number into the record books. Farhanna Farid of Singapore ranked eighth overall and set a new IPF raw deadlift world record of 209 kilograms on her third attempt.

Farid set up in a wide sumo stance and grasped the barbell in a mixed grip. The lift was so smooth and efficient that comments on the IPF’s Instagram post included zingers like, “She forgot to struggle.”

Farid went eight-for-nine in attempts, with the only blemish being her opening deadlift of 200 kilograms, a weight she promptly locked out on her second attempt. Her full results are below:
