Career
[edit]Raised in Liaoning,[1] Wang took part in hammer throw from a young age and was the winner of the 2006 Chinese youth championship.[2] He threw beyond sixty metres with the senior implement for the first time in 2007 and improved to 63.20 m (207 ft 4 in) the year after, placing seventh at the Chinese Athletics Championships. His gradual improvement continued into 2009, with a new best of 66.15 m (217 ft 1⁄4 in) coming at the 11th Chinese Games which was enough for sixth place. He bettered his national placing by one spot in 2010 and in 2011 he marked himself among the nations best throwers with a mark of 69.59 m (228 ft 3+3⁄4 in).[3]
Wang was runner-up to Qi Dakai at the 2012 Chinese Championships.

There he became the second best Chinese male hammer thrower in history by clearing a games record mark of 75.20 m (246 ft 8+1⁄2 in) – only Bi Zhong (Chinese record holder since 1989) had thrown further.[4] Out of competition, Wang received a public warning in June after a positive test for hydrochlorothiazide (a banned diuretic but a minor infraction of the doping code).[3]
He opened 2014 with a win in Chengdu in a mark of 72.67 m (238 ft 5 in). His female counterpart, Wang Zheng, broke the Asian record at that competition.[5] He was runner-up at the National Grand Prix Final in July and took that same position at the 2014 Asian Games, finishing behind Tajikistan's Dilshod Nazarov.[6]
