The young Dutch giant Enzo Kuworge just hit a personal best in the snatch of 166 kg in a national competition. Though stronger off blocks having hit 175 kg last December, Enzo is enormously talented with lots of time to improve more. Just four days later Enzo went on to hit another personal best, this time in the back squat, with a milestone 300 kg / 661 lb.
Though still just 17 Enzo can no longer set youth world records as he must be 17 years old throughout the entire calendar year in which the record is set. The current youth world standards are set at 162 / 196 / 352 kg, several kilos below Enzo’s best.
